Chapter 459 - 216: Giant Grouper
Upon being reminded by his viewers, Lin Yang immediately realized, "Right, safety, I almost forgot about that."
While his fishing rod was equipped with a safety tether, he was not wearing any special protective gear himself.
Lin Yang looked down and moved a few steps along the rail, quickly finding a specially secured slot.
On his body, he wore a belly-top, which had a safety belt similar to a car seat belt attached to the back of it.
After locating the slot, he connected the metal buckle at the end of the safety belt to the secure slot firmly.
As Lin Yang worked, he demonstrated to everyone, saying, "Here, this is how safety is handled on the boat. With this buckle, you don’t have to worry about mistakes or slipping and losing control. As for the much-loved live "nesting," that’s just not possible, not in this lifetime."
The angler who had hooked a fish first was holding his ground for a brief moment before he quickly lost strength, and his rod was laid across the rail.
Once the rod is completely horizontal, the buffer of the fishing rod is practically gone, turning the situation into a tug-of-war between the angler and the fish using the reel.
Under these circumstances, how could a person outmuscle a massive creature underwater? Not waiting for the judges and officials to arrive, and in less than two minutes, the rod snapped back up sharply.
