Rod fell into Liu Lei's hands, and he attached two pieces of Bait, adjusting the float slightly. Before Yi Laotou could approach, Liu Lei had already cast his line into the water.
A few steps was enough time for a professional like Liu Lei. As soon as he cast the Rod, he sensed that it was no ordinary one. When the bait hit the water, the feeling intensified; even though the Float remained still, he could feel the fish swimming past the line, giving him a slight feedback.
Without needing to look at the float, as soon as he felt a tug, Liu Lei squinted and lifted his rod—he had hooked a fish!
As he brought a fish ashore, Yi Laotou had already set up his Fishing Box and was staring at Liu Lei with a sharp gaze that made Liu Lei's scalp tingle.
Obediently tossing the fish into Yi Laotou's Yu Hu, Yi Laotou's expression softened instantly. He reached out to take the Rod from Liu Lei's hands, re-baited it, and cast it back into the water, entering a mode of continuous fishing.
"Old man, did you buy this Rod from Sanya? How much did it cost?" Seeing Yi Laotou catch another big fish and in good spirits, Liu Lei took this opportunity to ask.
"This was a gift from my disciple. See? It’s printed with 'Master's Exclusive!' Not for sale at any price!" As soon as the topic of the Rod came up, Yi Laotou beamed even brighter and quickly showed off.
"Your disciple customized this for you? He must be very filial! This Rod can't be cheap!" Liu Lei thought this was a good opening to gather information about the Rod while flattering Yi Laotou.
To learn more about the Rod, Liu Lei pulled out all his tricks—from adjusting floats to matching lines, fishing for suspended fish to using double weights. He nearly turned Yi Laotou into a professional Fishing Master. After offering two packs of exclusive Bait as payment, he finally learned where the Rod came from.
Anhe Town's Xing Xing Fishing Tackle Shop. However, they weren't taking orders for Customized Rods yet; they wouldn't offer customization until after the New Year! Even then, there were limits on how many could be ordered—when it would be available depended on luck!
Liu Lei decided to leave everyone behind and drove off with his two inseparable Rods. He needed to rush to Sanya overnight to find that Xing Xing Fishing Tackle Shop in Anhe Town.
He had only held Yi Laotou's Rod once for just two minutes, but that feeling had already left him craving more.
If he had such a Rod himself and entered competitions again, how could he not win?
He had been too naive to think he could just buy any rod and compete! Those who won awards all had sponsorships from professional brands. The reason they won was undoubtedly because they used those kinds of Rods from old masters!
Once he got his own Rod, he would definitely silence those competitors!
Old Zhang performed well last night; Aunt Zhang was pleased. Not only did he receive a Mi San Rod, but restrictions were also relaxed—he could fish across the river again during the day.
Unfortunately, since last week, more people had started fishing across the river. Shui Bi Zhang took Shui Laoban away; he didn’t know where they had gone to set up their Fishing Spot. Old Zhang felt quite lonely here!
"Hey brother, how’s the bite today?" After weighing half a pound of Live Shrimp at the shop, Old Zhang carried his gear across to greet them and check on their situation.
"Just got here; no bites yet!" Seeing Old Zhang approach, Liu Ju casually lifted his Fish Bucket—inside were only two Black Sea Bream and one Shi Jiu Gong.
It wasn’t even eight o'clock yet, and they had already caught three fish; that could be considered decent. However, compared to last week and the week before, fewer fish were showing up here. A few of them were planning to look for another Fishing Spot!
Looking at those three pitiful fish in the Fish Bucket, Old Zhang smacked his lips and said: "Without Bai Tiao for baiting up, the fishing situation is getting worse! It’s a pity there’s no Bait Contest this week; otherwise, I could have gotten some Bai Tiao to bait up!"
Having not had a chance to go fishing these past two weeks and not having time to accompany Shui Laoban to get Bai Tiao either, Old Zhang had already been expelled from fishing membership by Shui Laoban. However, since Shi Tian was organizing a Bait Contest, if he went to get some Bai Tiao then neither Shi Tian nor Shui Laoban should have any objections.
He is the landlord of Shi Tian; does Shi Tian dare to voice any objections? If he misbehaves, he can just raise the rent! As for Shui Laoban, it’s fine if he doesn’t take him fishing, but now he won’t even tell him about the Fishing Spot. If he catches Shui Laoban, he’ll have a good talk with him!
Hearing Liu Ju mention Bai Tiao, Old Zhang immediately stood up and handed a cigarette to him, saying, “Want to use Bait Contest? Will using Bai Tiao attract any fish?”
Liu Ju noticed Old Zhang's words, and Zhao Zong and Xu Yuanxiang nearby also heard him and gathered around.
It was hard to find such a good Fishing Spot and keep Liu Ju tied here. If the fishing conditions were poor and Liu Ju decided to change Fishing Spots, it would be impossible to catch up with him again!
The Fishing Tackle Shop across the street used to hold Bait Contests every week, and all the Bai Tiao caught would end up here, which meant more fish in this area. However, this week a typhoon came through, so no Bai Tiao were delivered, resulting in fewer fish here!
A few weeks ago, a friend caught a five-pound Mouse Grouper here and later landed four or five one-pound Large Yellow Croakers! Previously, when Shui Laoban and Shui Bi Zhang covered their fishing bucket from Shi Tian’s view, Shi Tian thought Shui Laoban was afraid he would get hurt by a Golden Drum Eel. In reality, those two had really caught something good—four or five Large Yellow Croakers that nearly made Old Zhang, who was watching the shop, drool!
Seeing Liu Ju exchanging glances with Xu Yuanxiang and Zhao Zong, Old Zhang turned around and squinted his eyes. “It’s strange; we’ve tried using Bai Tiao to attract fish in other places too. We put down dozens of pounds of Bai Tiao and didn’t catch a single fish. Why does using Bai Tiao here result in catching fish? And they’re all valuable ones!”
After mumbling to himself for a while without paying attention to the three’s intentions, Old Zhang walked back to his own Fishing Spot. He hooked on a Live Shrimp and cast his line out with a swift motion.
