Chapter 416 - 202: Boarding Big Swordfish_5
He kept reeling in the line, and the storage of the line in the spool had reached a relatively safe position, there should still be about seventy to eighty meters of line before the fish would surface.
Lin Yang originally thought the fish nearly exhausted its strength and wouldn’t pose much of a challenge, but after pulling in another ten or so meters of line, he discovered a new situation. The fish underneath the water stopped fleeing towards the deep sea and began circling under the boat instead.
"Something’s off, what is this fish up to?" Wang Feng, by his side, also noticed the strange behavior.
"It’s trying to grind against the bottom of the boat, it seems it indeed is a fish that has become crafty."
When Lin Yang had hooked fish in the past, he had encountered situations where large fish attempted to grind against the bottom of the boat, but it was never as severe as this time. The fish underwater seemed to know that the fishing line could get cut if it rubbed against the boat’s bottom, and it tried every angle to abrade the line.
No matter how clever the fish was, it remained a fish, and when compared to humans, its intelligence was ultimately lacking. Once it stopped diving into the deep, the pressure on Lin Yang suddenly lessened greatly. He clung to the rod and moved about the deck, with one core strategy in mind: not to let the fish snap the line.
After about ten minutes of struggle, the fish underneath had nearly exhausted its strength. Lin Yang seized an opportunity when the fish calmed down, put his head down and reeled in vigorously, finally pulling the big fellow out of the water.
Under the high-definition night vision lens of the drone, a large fish with a slender body shape dramatically leaped out of the water, splashing up great swathes of spray.
Yue’er illuminated it with a light, getting a clear view of the large fish that had kept several strong men busy for over an hour.
