Chapter 423 - 204: Record Broken_3
Drip, drip, drip!
A series of electronic alarm sounds went off, and Lin Yang suddenly looked up; his rod had a bite.
As mentioned before, placing the fishing rod in the recess of the ship’s rail greatly reduces the angler’s effort to keep the rod stable. At this moment, the thick rod had already bent into a large arc, indicating the fish was definitely not small.
"Haha, got a bite, I told you so," Lin Yang excitedly hooted, immediately starting to adjust the reel to release tension.
With his left hand, he grasped the middle section of the rod, and with his right hand, he vigorously cranked the reel. The force from beneath the water was much greater than he had anticipated. The reel’s tension release was already set to the lowest, and any more unwinding would completely lock it. Yet even so, it still wildly released line with clicking sounds.
"Did we really catch a big fish? Wow," Ah Bin, hearing Lin Yang’s excited shout and taking a look, could hardly keep from swearing in awe.
"Haha, luck is on our side,"
With his experience in fishing for large fish, Lin Yang was now much more relaxed than before, checked the reel tension, calmly maintained the angle of force on the rod, and waited for the fish to tire after covering a certain distance before he would have some fun reeling it in.
The plan sounded good, but the impact from the Big Fish underwater was more exaggerated than the Big Swordfish from the day before. The thick rod was nearly parallel to the sea’s surface. In just a few breaths, half of the line had emptied from the reel.
