In order to catch big fish, he had to endure the smell and pain. Hong Tao put the fishing rod on the railing of the boat, took out a cigarette, and while swatting away mosquitoes, he watched the movement of the fishing rod.
I don’t know whether the fishing spot is in the wrong place or the bait is not smelly enough. After waiting for more than an hour, the two fishing rods did not move at all and there was not a single bite. No fish was caught, but a lot of mosquitoes were harvested. Those gadgets kept coming one after another.
On the face or with the hands, sometimes two of them can be killed with one slap. If you move a little slower, there will be a small red spot on the skin.
"Let me smoke another De Sheng cigarette. The reason why I didn't catch any fish is probably because I didn't smoke enough!" Hong Tao was not in a hurry except for being bothered by mosquitoes.
In the past, when fishing in domestic reservoirs, not to mention waiting for an hour, sometimes it would take 2 or 3 days to find a nest. If you don't have the patience, just don't fish at all. And giant fish like this don't matter in which waters.
They are relatively scarce here, and if someone can catch them by just setting a hook, that is not scientific at all. It is normal that they cannot be caught.
But he was not in a hurry to return, and he still wanted to catch fish, so Hong Tao developed a habit of blaming the blame for not catching fish on various small things. For example, not smoking enough cigarettes.
If you are sitting in the wrong posture, the fishing rods are not placed neatly, etc., you can find something to do to distract yourself and not just stare at the fishing rods, which will become more and more annoying the more you look at them.
.
"Don't be anxious. I'll spread another half bucket of smelly meat. Maybe it doesn't taste enough." Hong Tao didn't rush, but Anaya couldn't sit still. The smell on his body had just been blown away by the small wind, and now it's coming again.
The speedboat went to throw the bait, and Hong Tao didn't believe the reason he said. You don't even need to smell it in the water to see if the taste is good enough. You can tell by smelling Anaya, it's very pure!
God greatly appreciated Anaya's unscrupulous service attitude, so the old man showed mercy. Hong Tao's fishing rod finally started to move. Shortly after Anaya came back from throwing another half bucket of smelly sewer, Hong Tao stood behind the railing.
The fishing rod suddenly shook twice. Before Hong Tao could reach out to grab it, the entire fishing rod was pulled away from the overtime and got stuck on the railing, swinging back and forth.
"Hahaha, here we come! Fatty, Sturgeon, there's something going on here! You guys should also be careful over there, we may catch up with this wave!" Hong Tao took the fishing rod in his hand with a single stride.
He stretched the fishing rod and slowly reeled in the line, while shouting at Fatty Bu and the sturgeon on the bow, reminding them to be more careful and not to let the fish pull the fishing rod away.
Although the movement of the fish was very fierce, Hong Tao felt a chill after reeling in a few turns of line, because judging from the feel, the fish in the water was not big, but it was quite powerful, but not heavy enough.
"It's a Satan duckbill, but it's not yet underage..." Sure enough. A few minutes later, the fish with the hook was pulled to the side of the boat, without even a chance to struggle. Anaya held up a strong light
As soon as the light shone on it, I felt very depressed. I just grabbed the fishing line and pulled it up.
Lying on the deck of the boat is a flower fish that is more than a foot long. Its main color is white, but it is covered with large black round spots. If it weren't for the four long beards on its mouth, it looks like it at first glance.
It's a star shark. Although it's not that big, its mouth is quite big when it's fully opened. The whole big fishhook is stuffed in its mouth. Only half of the meat on it is left.
"This is the Satan Platyfish? Is it different from the one in the picture?" Hong Tao didn't even take a photo, he grabbed its tail and threw it back into the river. This kind of gadget is not worth wasting batteries.
"When it becomes an adult, these spots will disappear. You can hang another piece of meat on it and I will help you pull it over." Anaya jumped onto the speedboat again, but as a result of Hong Tao's hook, she started the speedboat and drove towards the other shore with the fishing line.
"Have you caught the fish? Where's the fish?" At this moment, Fatty Bu came over from the bow of the boat with a cigarette in his mouth. He wanted to trick him, so he took out the hat of his hunting suit and put it on his head, leaving only a
Keep your face open to prevent mosquitoes from burrowing into your neck.
"It's too small. Throw it back and make it bigger." Hong Tao gestured with his hands.
"Normally, after throwing away so much stinky broth, the smell should be enough. It's been 2 hours. Even if the big fish swims slowly, it should follow the smell. Isn't the position wrong? How about we and
Ananya, tell me, try another place?" Fatty Bu was a little anxious and planned to change fishing positions.
"It's better not to worry about it. It's a dark day and it's dangerous to sail a boat, and you can't see where it's suitable and where it's not. Just fish steadily. If you can't catch it today, let's come back tomorrow. It's so easy to catch big fish.
Ah!" Hong Tao doesn't agree with changing places. He mainly considers it from a safety perspective. The river flows very fast. If you go upstream in the dark and encounter a rock or something, it will be troublesome.
Had the Satanic Platypus as a midnight snack.
"Yes, let's have a look." Fatty Bu felt that what Hong Tao said was reasonable, so he shouldn't bother with it, so he walked back to the bow of the boat.
I waited for more than 3 hours and fished until about 2 o'clock in the morning. The big Satan duckbill was still missing, but several small Satan fish came up. Hong Tao and Fatty Bu both had harvests, but unfortunately the biggest one was not there.
Half a meter long, except for one whose head was pierced by a fishhook and could not survive, the others were thrown back to let them continue to grow and leave some hope for future generations.
Although after 12 o'clock, the fog on the waterside became heavier and the mosquitoes could no longer fly, it was still boring to catch these small fish. Seeing that it was almost dawn, Hong Tao did not let Anaya catch the remaining fish.
Instead of throwing the smelly bucket into the water and throwing it into the water, I chose to rest and try somewhere else the next day.
And Ananya looks very tired. Not only does he have to throw the smelly meat, but he also has to drive a speedboat to help Hong Tao and Fatty cloth throw fishing bait. Although he doesn't say it himself, we can't pretend.
If you can't see it, you can't use it to the point of death. If you do it once or twice, everyone will have an opinion after the time has passed.
After having some midnight snacks, everyone put away their fishing rods and hid in the hammocks in the cabin to sleep. Even if there were no mosquitoes outside, no one dared to sleep on the deck because besides mosquitoes, there were also
Blood-sucking bats and other insects are a pain in the ass.
After breakfast the next day, the boat began to arduously move upstream again. They needed to find a place with similar terrain to last night. First, there must be a hole on the river bank, then the water must be deep enough, and finally there must be a place to park the boat.
.
Fortunately, this river has always been twists and turns. Basically, the terrain is similar at every turn in the river. After walking a few kilometers further upstream, I finally found a sharp turn in the river, which is close to the left bank.
The water depth is more than 8 meters, and the current is very fast. However, there is a shoal near the right bank with very calm water, which is where the boat can stop.
But we can’t catch it yet, because those Satan duckbills are nocturnal fish, and you definitely can’t catch them in broad daylight. However, Hong Tao and the others are not idle either, they can’t catch Satan duckbills, and they can’t catch other fish either.
As for the bait, it would be easier. Ananya went up to the river bank with a shovel and soon dug out a few things that were said to be earthworms.
Why are there rumors? Because these earthworms are so powerful, they are longer than Hong Tao's belt, as thick as a shovel handle, black and slimy, and they look so oozing. It seems that in the Amazon Basin, not only fish
, beetles, butterflies, parrots grow big, earthworms are not far behind.
Obviously, this kind of earthworms cannot be hung whole on the hook. You can only use a knife to cut them into strips of meat, and then hook them up. Fortunately, their fleshy skin is very tough, unlike domestic earthworms, which can become watery when pinched.
.
Earthworms are known as universal fishing bait, which means that almost all fish in fresh water like to eat them. This universal fishing bait is indeed worthy of its reputation. It was harvested within a few minutes after setting the hook. Hong Tao actually caught a bass, which was not small, as big as 2
It looks like a pound.
"This is a peacock bass! The number is very small, and many people can't catch it even if they want to catch it." Seeing Hong Tao casually throw the fish into the bucket, intending to use it as lunch, Anaya quickly picked up the fish again.
"Peacock bass?" Hong Tao looked at this fish with three black vertical stripes on its body, but didn't think it looked like a peacock.
"Look, its color changes when you put it in the water." Ananya grabbed the fish with her hands and put it in the bucket. Sure enough, as soon as the fish's body touched the water, it immediately changed into several colors.
It's really beautiful. The most peacock-like thing is that there is a big black spot on its tail, which looks like a peacock's tail feathers.
Since it is a rare fish species in the Amazon, it is necessary to take a few photos as a souvenir. After taking the photos, Hong Tao did not let go of this fish. He was tired of eating grilled piranha all the time, so he decided to cook it himself for everyone at noon.
Add a side of steamed seabass. As for the quantity of it, I don’t care about it now.
In addition to this peacock bass, Fatty Bu and Sturgeon also caught several strange fish that they had never seen before, including pike-shaped fish with sharp teeth, colorful tropical fish, and more of them were on the map.
There are some fish species that are not even found in Anaya, and some of them cannot even be named.
Of course, the most abundant ones are piranhas and bagu fish, which are popular in the Amazon basin. They are the domestic white striped fish and wheat ear fish. They can be found wherever there is water. No matter what meat you hang on
The bait is still plain bait. As long as there is something on the hook, they will pounce on it and take a bite regardless of their own safety. Even if they can't bite the food, if they can bite other fish, the trip is not in vain.
Speaking of biting other fish, here is a terrible phenomenon. Ever since Hong Tao and the others came here, they have hardly seen a fish with all beards and tail. Either the tail is rotten or the fins are broken. This causes
The main culprit for this reason is the various piranhas, also known as piranhas, living here. (To be continued...)
