Chapter 681: Strength does not allow fishing for a whole night

Chapter 681: Strength does not allow fishing for a whole night

"Hey, be careful this late at night. I'll start first!" Yan Bugui howled, and then couldn't wait to adjust the float and hang the bait.

In the past, you had to find a place to dig some earthworms or corn kernels and make a nest before you could start fishing.

But today, with Chen Jun’s bait, all the preliminary preparations are not needed!

And people who often fish know that fishing at night is easier than fishing during the day, especially in summer.

The weather is hot in the summer, and the river water will be heated by the sun. The fish in the river are relatively scattered, some hiding under the shade of trees, in the reeds, and others hiding in deep water. Even if you are lucky enough to find a suitable fishing spot, the fish may not bite.

But it is different at night. As the sun sets, the temperature of the river water gradually drops, and the fish in the river begin to come out to look for food.

Chen Jun nodded without saying anything and slowly moved towards the reed marsh.

Although it was night time, it did not affect Chen Jun's vision at all. He followed the fluttering sound and found something unexpected.

"Tsk, it's actually a wild duck nest!"

Chen Jun let out a click of his tongue, raised his hand and waved it at the duck eggs. Six wild duck eggs disappeared out of thin air. Then he made a simple trap on the wild duck's nest and left the reed marsh.

If I'm lucky, I can eat stewed duck tomorrow.

When he returned, Yan Bugui's side had already started.

Chen Jun didn't hesitate. He chose a place to sit down, took a small ball of bait from the bait, rubbed it with his hands and hung it on the fishhook. He raised his hand, swung the fishing rod, and threw it out steadily.

With weather like today, we should be able to catch fish soon.

Sure enough, after just over a minute, Chen Jun caught a glimpse of movement in the fishing float.

Push the fish float, then pause, and continue to push the float.

"Uncle, I have a crucian carp!"

Chen Jun shouted with a smile, then lifted the club suddenly.

The fishing rod was bent into a bow under the force, and then a flapping sound was heard, but before it could flap a few times, it was thrown onto the shore by Chen Jun.

"Wow, it really is a crucian carp!" Yan Bugui was shocked!

Chen Jun can not only clearly see the fishing float on the river surface, but also judge what kind of fish is biting the bait based on the reaction of the fishing float.

Cow!

If Yan Bugui didn't know Chen Jun's situation, he would definitely think that he started fishing since he was a child.

But Chen Jun only started fishing in the last year. No matter how envious Yan Bugui was, he knew the gap between himself and Chen Jun.

However, there were a lot of fishermen who were not as good as Chen Jun, but Yan Bugui had a good attitude.

As long as you can catch fish, why bother about so many other things?

"Hey, there's not even a pound!"

Chen Jun said lightly and threw the crucian carp into the fish basket.

Next, Chen Jun and Yan Bugui got busy, hanging bait, casting the rod, lifting the rod, and picking up fish, one rod after another, without even a single empty rod.

"Hey, Uncle Third, this is a great place you picked!"

"Oh, the bait you made is really effective!"

As Chen Jun and Yan Bugui were bragging to each other, the bait was decreasing little by little, until the bucket and fish basket brought by Yan Bugui were filled, and then the two men put down their rods reluctantly.

"Oh, this is the first time I feel that fishing is a physical activity!" Yan Bugui rubbed his sore shoulders, but he couldn't stop the excitement in his words.

On his side alone, there were more than 60 kilograms of fish.

"Wow~"

Chen Jun lifted the fish basket out of the water. The fish tails inside could be heard swaying in the water, and river water flowed out from the cracks.

After lifting the fish basket and shaking it a few times, Chen Jun made a simple estimate and said, "It should be around 70 to 80 kilograms."

After saying that, he raised his wrist. It was just past ten o'clock in the evening.

this.......

We had originally planned to fish all night, but it ended before 11 o'clock.

Although the resources in this river are good, there are obviously not very big fish. Most of them are around one kilogram. A fish weighing three or four kilograms is considered a big one.

However, fish of this size are most suitable for making banquets.

"It's quite a lot, quite a lot!" Yan Bugui said happily, "I thought we would have to work all night, but we caught enough fish so quickly. Come on, I'll help you carry it over."

The two of them worked together to move the caught fish onto the bicycle. Chen Jun turned back and walked more than ten meters, and found the rope on the trap in the dark.

He squatted down, untied the rope, wrapped it around his hands, and began to pull it up slowly.

Under normal circumstances, the ground trap must be left out for at least half a day to be effective, and a whole day is best. However, that is when using common things like chicken intestines. What Chen Jun threw was bait for fishing, so an hour would be enough.

"Wow~~~"

The trap was pulled ashore by Chen Jun.

Under the moonlight, Chen Jun discovered that there were unexpectedly a lot of goods in the trap.

In addition to loaches and eels, Chen Jun also saw a lot of river shrimps and small fish.

Gee!

There are quite a lot of species in this river. Uncle Sanba is not good at fishing, but he is good at choosing places.

Looking back at Yan Bugui who was fixing the fish basket, Chen Jun flipped his wrist and a large bucket appeared out of thin air. He untied the opening of the trap and poured all the contents into it.

Eels and loaches are the main targets today, and Chen Jun kept all of them as long as they were of reasonable size.

The same goes for river shrimps, which become fragrant after being fried in oil.

Chen Jun threw the small fish, water plants and other things directly back into the river.

After choosing and selecting, there was actually more than half a bucket left.

Looking at the eels twisting and turning in the bucket, Chen Jun couldn't help but grin. People nowadays don't like to eat eels, so there are a lot of them in the river. After thinking about it, he threw some bait into the trap and then threw it back into the water.

Others may not know that wild eels are good things, but he knows!

Make more so you can stockpile it even if you can’t finish it.

When the two men rode their bicycles back to the courtyard, the third aunt was still awake and was sitting in the yard to enjoy the cool air. She was probably worried that Yan Bugui would go fishing in the wild.

Although Yan Bugui was a very qualified fisherman, the three aunts were still worried about going to the river so late at night.

But when she saw the results of their battle, her worry turned into shock.

“So many fish!!!”

The third aunt was dumbfounded. She knew that Chen Jun’s bait was good, but Chen Jun only brought back a few fish every time he went fishing and sold the rest.

The same goes for Yan Bugui. After all, fishing is for making money and improving the family's food, so keeping a few fish is enough, so the third aunt doesn't have a specific idea in her mind.

Seeing it today really opened my eyes.

"Old Yan, there are so many fish. Where should we put them?" The third aunt's lips trembled with excitement.

"Clear out all the big vats and basins in our house. Oh, and bring the pot as well, otherwise it won't work!" At this time, Yan Bugui stood straight and spoke in a strong voice, without any worry about waking up the people in the yard.
