"I think this is reliable. Don't say it yet. I'm a little excited when you say it. If I were not the only one, I would still be the same if I had a dog at work. Time.
A lot of them." Wang Jian's first reaction after hearing Hong Tao's plan was to join in the fun.
"Your bait may not be easy to use in the competition. No one has tried this before, and we are not familiar with the rules of the competition. Let's not be busy with the future. If you really want to do this, Brother Gao, I support you.
, but the first step is to be familiar with these competitions." Fatty Gao looked at the problem very pragmatically. He was not attracted by the prospect of fishing all over the country or even the world in the future, but directly pointed out Hong Tao's current shortcomings.
"Yeah, I'm not very familiar with this business competition. I don't want to ask you if you know anyone in this field. I want to find someone reliable to talk to us. After we finish listening, we will know my plan.
Can it be implemented?" Hong Tao felt that what Fatty Gao said made sense.
"But we don't know anyone in this field..." Fatty Gao and Wang Jian looked at each other and shook their heads together.
At present, the fishing community in China is roughly divided into two categories. One is recreational fishing. They regard fishing as a hobby, just like we play badminton, basketball, and mahjong after get off work. It is purely for fishing. Fun; the other type is competitive fishing. If you look at the word, it means competition, that is, a competition, where there must be a win or loss. Therefore, most of these fishing friends are concentrated in various commercial fish pits, and usually use fish similar to those in competition fish ponds. Hone your skills in pits, and then you are keen to participate in various competitions to compete for victory and ranking.
Although these two types of fishermen are both fishing, their habits are different, their pursuits are completely different, and the places they usually play are not the same, so they don’t have much interaction with each other, although there are also people who like both leisure fishing and competitive fishing.
fishing friends, but the number is very small.
Most of the fishing friends Hong Tao came into contact with were recreational fishing, so he wanted to find someone who was familiar with competitive fishing to understand the situation, but he really didn’t know where to start.
"Hey, the three of us can't figure it out here. Why don't we ask the people who often come to your store to chat. They might know one or two people who play competitive games." The tall, fat man still had a flexible mind and came up with a solution.
.
When Hong Tao told the fishing friends who often came to the store to chat that he wanted to try competitive fishing and needed to chat with a fishing friend who was familiar with the competitive fishing circle, let alone the fact that there are more people, there is more power. The next day
A fishing friend called Hong Tao and told Hong Tao that there was someone in his unit who was a competitive fisherman, and his skills were pretty good. I dare not say he was famous nationwide, but he was relatively well-known in the competitive fishing circles in Beijing.
When Hong Tao heard the news, he immediately felt at ease, because the fishing friend who called was none other than Mr. Fu, a retired cadre from the Ministry of Health. When Hong Tao asked Mr. Fu if he could recommend an expert from their unit,
Old Man Fu agreed immediately and guaranteed it, there would be no problem at all. See you at the fishing tackle shop on Saturday.
The man brought by Mr. Fu was surnamed Yang. He looked like he was in his 30s. He kept calling "Old Fu" every time. From the first glance, he seemed to be someone from the system. Mr. Fu must have made everything clear to him before he came, so
As soon as I arrived at the fishing gear shop, I called Hong Tao over and gave a brief introduction to the two of them, then ran to a group of fishing friends who were chatting animatedly.
"Brother Yang, please see that this is a big weekend and I would like to trouble you to come over in person. Would you like to have tea or a drink?" Hong Tao let the master into the back room and was polite at first.
"Xiaohong, right? You're welcome. Mr. Fu is my old superior. It was Mr. Fu who taught me how to fish. Besides, I've heard from Mr. Fu that the bait you have here is excellent. I just happened to come and take a look today." Master Yang
In front of Hong Tao, a stranger, he never leaves Fu Lao. It seems that after Fu Lao retired, he has not lost all his contacts and still has a lot of residual energy to use.
"Xiao Gao, come in with a bottle of iced Coke." Hong Tao shouted outside the room, then handed over a cigarette and helped light the fire.
"Brother Yang, I have nothing to do and want to participate in a fishing competition, but the rules are not very clear, so I want to ask you about the situation. I heard that you are an expert. Can you explain it to me in detail?
." Hong Tao put him up first to prevent the other party from being too cunning and talking about unimportant things.
"Hey, it's just for fun. There are experts and no experts. Don't listen to that. If you want to participate in the competition, it's easy. There will be one next week on March 3 in Changping. I will take you there then and it will be over.
"Master Yang evaded the most important thing and only agreed to take Hong Tao with him. Who knows if he really did take Hong Tao with him or if he forgot about it?
"By the way, my other brother happened to be here today. He works in the same company as you. It's time for lunch. Come on, Brother Yang, let's have lunch first and chat while eating." Hong Tao is not looking for anyone.
If you take it with you to the competition, you can sign up and go. It doesn't matter if you take it with you or not. What he wants to know is the rules and the details of this circle.
Hong Tao didn't wait for Master Yang to speak, and went directly to the outhouse. He first dragged Old Man Fu, then Fatty Gao, and then called Wang Jian. The five of them went to the barbecue season. Seeing Old Man Fu and Hong Tao like this
Familiar, Master Yang didn't refuse anything.
At the dinner table, after everyone toasted and drank, at Old Man Fu's request, Master Yang couldn't refuse, so he slowly explained in detail the general rules of competitive fishing and some precautions in the circle.
As for this competitive fishing, it was introduced to China a few years ago and basically flowed in together with Taiwanese fishing. Competitive fishing is usually carried out in a flat-bottomed artificial pond. According to the fish species, it is divided into two types: crucian carp and polyculture. Mixed fishing
There are three types of fish in the pond: crucian carp, carp and grass carp. According to the winning method, there are two ways to calculate the mantissa and calculate the weight, which is to see who catches more fish and who catches the higher weight of fish.
The fishing rod used in competitive fishing is generally required to be 3.6 meters long, and the total length of the fishing line plus sub-line should not exceed 3.9 meters. In addition, a 4.5-meter fishing rod can also be used, and the length of the fishing line should not exceed 30 centimeters. In addition to fishing
In addition to restrictions on rod size and fishing line length, competitive fishing also stipulates hooks. Barbless hooks must be used, and the number of hooks must not exceed 2.
In terms of bait, competition fishing regulations are relatively loose, except that the use of artificial bait, insects, grass, and bait that is toxic and harmful to the environment is not allowed. For the rest, you can use commercial bait or homemade bait. However, Master Yang
It also mentioned an exception, that is, some competitions are sponsored by merchants, so they must use bait specified by the merchant. In such competitions, the organizer usually prescribes the bait uniformly, and then gives each participating fisherman a bait.
For some baits, you are not allowed to bring your own bait. This method is called "public bait". However, in those national competitions, this "public bait" method is rarely used.
This is good news for Hong Tao. If he is not allowed to use his own bait, then Hong Tao will not have to participate in the competition. For a fisherman like him who has only had a few exposure to fishing competitions, the registration will be in vain.
fee.
As for other aspects, there are many regulations for competitive fishing. For example, hooks and floats are not allowed to enter the water before the competition whistle blows. When throwing the rod, you must use the front of your own pole as a mark. Fish that enter the house after the whistle blows are not allowed.
Calculating grades, etc., these need to be practiced several times on site before you can slowly understand them.
Another issue in competitive fishing that Hong Tao is very concerned about is how to calculate the competition results. The calculation method of competition results in competitive fishing is very special. It determines the winner based on who has the lowest score in a game, and the lowest is 1 point.
For example, the fisherman ranked first in terms of the number or weight of fish caught will receive 1 point; the second place will receive 2 points; the third place will receive 3 points, and so on.
National competitions are organized by the China Fishing Association, with a small number, probably only a few each year. And more competitions are local competitions organized by local provincial and municipal fishing associations. Except for those that require competitive fishing athlete qualifications
In addition to participating in the points competition, you can register for other competitions at will.
