Chapter 602 - 262: Fishing for Emperor Crab_2
Lin Yang nodded his head and teased the rod as per Ivan’s instructions.
The rod was quite flexible, the water too deep, and teasing it was met with some resistance. Simple teasing didn’t reveal anything unusual.
Just when he thought he was being pranked, the tip of the rod suddenly dipped slightly as if a scarf had caught on something, giving him that kind of illusion.
This feeling was different from hooking a fish at the bottom; fish usually swim rapidly and quickly try to flee, pulling on the line, whereas now, after the dip of the rod, there was no clear feeling of the line being tugged.
"Is there resistance? You might have a crab. Try reeling in the line and see," Ivan chimed in with a timely reminder.
Lin Yang muttered to himself, worrying that the line might be snagged on the bottom. With a bit of uncertainty, he began reeling in.
Though quite heavy, it wasn’t snagged. The fishing rig was gradually pulled up by Yue Feng.
After a few minutes of winding, the fishing rig emerged from the water, revealing a monstrous Emperor Crab covered in formidable spines in front of everyone in the live stream.
"Damn, I’ve really caught one!"
Lin Yang couldn’t help but swear, then, placing his hand on the rod, he exerted force and flung the Emperor Crab onto the deck.
He had eaten this creature in high-end restaurants before, where a pound cost hundreds, and an Emperor Crab of two to three pounds would be over one thousand yuan. At the restaurant, it was usually about tasting one leg per person to experience the delicacy.
