Chapter 465 - 218: The Mysterious Colossus
Just then, a nurse shark over a meter long was attracted by the spreading scent of blood and, with a swish of its tail, charged toward the bait fish.
Feeling the shark’s approach, the big fish by the cave entrance instinctively recoiled back into the cave.
The next second, as Lin Yang was teasing the fish with his lure, he suddenly felt a weight underwater—something had attacked the bait.
The change in water depth was quite apparent in the feel of the rod after hooking a fish; the same size fish felt about thirty percent heavier with just a ten-meter increase in water depth. When he jerked the rod to set the hook, Lin Yang thought it was another giant grouper, but after reeling in the line a few times, it didn’t feel quite right.
The direction of the force from the fish underwater was headed outward, and the strength was intermittent—compared to the ferocity and brutality of a giant grouper, this one’s fight seemed a bit lacking. Although it felt similar at first, he clearly discerned a difference.
"Hooked another one? Damn."
"Tell the captain to call the referee, it takes time to come over from that distance, end it quickly and decisively."
"There are really a ton of giant groupers in the United States, watching the streamer fish is so satisfying. I vow to work hard, and when I have the money, I must indulge in this pleasure at least once in my lifetime."
As the bullet comments heatedly debated about the fish, Lin Yang shook his head at the camera: "False alarm, judging from the force, this fish is most likely not a giant grouper. The feel after the hook is off; this fish attacked the bait when I raised it about eighty centimeters off the bottom, then it started fleeing into the distance. Anyway, no one has caught two fish yet, there’s plenty of time, so I’ll take it slowly and play around a bit.
