Chapter 483 - 224: The School of Fish Has Arrived
"Can you just tell us what exactly you’re planning to do?" Zhang Lin felt completely overwhelmed, and he noticed that Captain Harry’s expression was also a bit off.
Lin Yang explained with a smile, "Just consider if my analysis makes sense. First of all, we’re chumming with fish chunks, which can certainly attract the bluefin, but dead fish only really appeal to the smaller individuals; the clever big fish are hard to fool and very alert."
"Yeah, right, that makes sense."
"So, what if we process the fish chunks into a paste? What happens if we toss that in? The bits are too small for the bluefin to eat properly, right?"
"Yeah, and then what?"
"If the bluefin can’t feed on it, smaller fish will get the chance, right? Captain Harry mentioned earlier that there are herring in these waters. Do you think a school of herring could be attracted to this kind of meat paste?"
When the school of herring shows up, the bluefin tuna chasing the herring will follow them, won’t they? Natural big herring definitely won’t resist, right?
If that happens, won’t our chances of fishing increase? It’s the same principle as first catching a baitfish with a hook and then using the baitfish to catch the big one.
After hearing Lin Yang’s explanation, Zhang Lin pondered for a few seconds and felt there was indeed some truth in it.
