Chapter 314 - 175: Giant True Sea Bream_2
While several people were silently guarding the location of the Big Grouper, Lin Yang had already cast his line into the water again. He had adjusted the depth of his rig, and the spot where he was fishing was about five meters deeper than where Ah Jie and the others were.
In other words, if Ah Jie and his group’s hooks were hovering about five meters above the reef at the time, Lin Yang’s hook had already reached the midst of the reef.
The method he was using now was extremely dangerous because once a fish took the bait, it would frantically flee immediately, and if the fish crazily darted around the underwater reef, his fishing line would be directly cut off.
Next to him, Li Xiaopeng and Yue’er also adjusted their fishing depths according to Lin Yang’s method, fishing two to three meters higher than Lin Yang.
After everyone changed their fishing methods, the scene once again became quiet, and everyone was silently waiting for their hook to catch a fish.
Less than ten minutes passed, and suddenly Lin Yang’s rod started to shake violently.
Upon seeing this, he immediately picked up the rod and jerked it upward forcefully, not giving the fish any chance to dive down.
Relying on the quality of his rod and the additional protection provided by the line and rod buffs, he didn’t give the fish underwater any chance to take line because if the fish did so, it would surely dive deep, and where his hook was currently located amid the reef, giving the fish slack would certainly result in a cut line.
Therefore, to safely pull the fish up, like in shore fishing, he had to lift the rod up, raising the fish’s underwater depth a bit to make it move away from the reefs, or even forcibly reel in to pull the fish back hard.
