Chapter 627 - 271: Frenzied Fish Affection_2
Fishing with such rudimentary gear, isn’t that a bit too perfunctory?
Seeing Uncle Victor casually cast his fishing rig into the water, driven by curiosity, Lin Yang didn’t cast his own line immediately but observed Uncle Victor’s fishing technique first.
The uncle’s method was very simple: after throwing the lead sinker and string hook vertically down from the boat, he steadily let out the line, and soon the rig sank to the bottom under the weight of the lead sinker.
Then, Uncle Victor locked the drag, lifted the tip of the rod, and began to jig it up and down.
The posture was merely passable, but Lin Yang wasn’t optimistic.
Why is that, you ask? Observing the line-laying just now, the water here must be at least thirty to forty meters deep.
At that depth, the underwater light is quite dim. An empty fishhook, relying just on the faint reflection of a bit of fish skin to attract fish attention and provoke an attack, objectively speaking, the probability of the fish finding and attacking the bait should be very small.
However, Lin Yang was soon dumbfounded again.
Uncle Victor had only jiggled the rod up and down a few times when the rod tip bent sharply, signaling a prompt nod.
