Chapter 295 - 170: The Most Expensive Grouper_2
"Holy moly, that’s expensive!"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaopeng scrambled back to fishing as if pumped with adrenaline.
This is the difference between sea fishing and freshwater fishing.
Freshwater fishing is mostly for entertainment or to pass the time, and the fish you catch are mostly for your own consumption or to sell for a bit of pocket money. Many even spend more money on fishing than they earn from their catch.
Sea fishing, on the other hand, can almost always turn a profit as long as you can get a catch, how much you earn depends on what kind of fish you catch.
So for someone like Lin Yang to hook a Red Spot, it really wasn’t easy.
Grouper, sea bream, and other similar fish differ from other sea fish in that they can’t really be caught in nets because they primarily live among rocks or coral reefs.
Therefore, live, wild ones are mostly caught through fishing. That’s one of the reasons why they sell for so much.
As far as Lin Yang knew, the problem of breeding Red Spot had not yet been solved. This means that this type of fish is still only available wild worldwide, and whether dead or alive, their numbers are not high.
