Chapter 550 - 244: Red-tailed Catfish_4
Don’t be fooled by the fish’s clunky appearance, seemingly harmless to humans and animals; in actuality, it’s quite fierce in the water and dares to eat anything it can swallow.
Not long ago, at the camp, they even found a big fellow that had choked to death on a Peacock Bass, spiked by its dorsal fins—it weighed a good fifty or sixty pounds! Also, these creatures mostly feed on carrion. Fishing for fun is fine, but I really wouldn’t recommend eating them. They’re likely to have parasites...
After Sun Zheng’s informative talk, Lin Yang no longer had the intention of taking it back with him. In fact, he had never planned to slaughter it and have a taste. After taking some photos and selfies, he released it back into the water.
Just as he had put the fish back into the water to catch its breath, Baom, who had been observing the surroundings, suddenly gestured with a hand to signal everyone to stop talking.
With a lowered voice, Sun Zheng asked, "What’s up?"
Pointing towards the distant water surface, Baom said, "Giant bone tongue fish."
Lin Yang followed where he was pointing and happened to see a large mouth breaching the otherwise calm water surface, creating ripples around it. A few seconds later, a large mouth appeared.
By the size of it, it was about as big as the basin used at home for soup.
Lin Yang quickly maneuvered the drone, raising its altitude and adjusting the camera, and soon the overhead shot from the drone was on the screen.
