206: Fishing Master

After Yang Qi adjusted his fishing rod, he couldn't pay attention to it anymore, because Zhang Jun's giant rod and fishing line both hooked fish.

After Yang Qi held the rod to set the hook, he also loosened the drag and attached two more buoys to the fishing line.

Then, without looking back, he ran towards the lounge. Half an hour ago, Zhang Jun was still bragging there; he should still be there now.

Yang Qi ran to the entrance and shouted loudly:

"Brother Jun, hurry!"

Zhang Jun, who was in the middle of bragging, heard Yang Qi's somewhat urgent voice and immediately stood up, walking quickly towards him.

As he walked, he asked, "Yang Qi, why the rush? What happened?"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Your fishing rod hooked another giant!"

Yang Qi shouted and ran outside.

"Another giant?"

Zhang Jun was bewildered. He hadn't even cast his rod; how could he have hooked a giant?

However, knowing Yang Qi, he knew he wasn't an imprudent person.

Shouting like that in public must have a reason.

Zhang Jun didn't ask further and followed Yang Qi out. Before leaving, he even turned back and shouted, "Giant!"

Everyone immediately reacted and ran out with him.

Yang Qi somewhat admired Zhang Jun's quick thinking. Of course, there was a reason for his shouting earlier.

With four Bluefin Tuna, each weighing four to five hundred catties, hooked simultaneously, he and Zhang Jun alone couldn't handle them.

He needed to find some labor to help. The group of fishing enthusiasts listening to Zhang Jun brag were the best helpers.

That's right, he had known through his ability that the fish on the hooks were four Bluefin Tuna, each weighing four to five hundred catties.

When Yang Qi ran back to his fishing spot, he saw that Wang Jinxi and the other two had also hooked fish, and they were all consciously pulling them to distant areas, trying to maximize the distance between each other.

Fortunately, only a few of them were fishing on the entire boat right now. There was plenty of space.

Yang Qi didn't know why, but all three of their catches were Yellowfin Tuna, each weighing around one hundred sixty to two hundred catties.

Yang Qi felt it was because his handsome appearance was more attractive to Bluefin Tuna.

"Holy crap, holy crap!"

Zhang Jun, who was the first to follow, shouted twice.

Immediately after, a series of "holy crap" sounds erupted.

"Awesome! Awesome!"

"A-Jun, do you need help?"

Several fishing enthusiasts who were quite familiar with Zhang Jun didn't even ask; they just directly lent a hand.

Mainly, they wanted to get a feel for someone else's big fish and enjoy the thrill.

"Oh dear! Don't all crowd around me! Go help my brother over there too!"

Zhang Jun quickly said. As soon as he arrived and saw the scene, he understood Yang Qi's intention.

"Not enough manpower!"

Hearing Zhang Jun's words, four or five people immediately split off and ran over to Yang Qi's side to help.

If everyone crowded around Zhang Jun, their turn would be shorter. It was more suitable to split into two groups and spend more time here.

These fishing enthusiasts might never have caught a giant fish, but their theoretical knowledge was so rich that they could write a textbook.

Three heads are better than one.

What about four or five "professor-level" fishing enthusiasts?

Their practical experience might be a bit lacking, but after a short adaptation, they would be fine.

Combining theoretical knowledge with practical operation, plus continuous discussion among themselves,

After some time, they finally managed to control the giant fish, and they did it with skill and precision.

Their stamina was a bit lacking, but that was not an issue; they could take turns.

A one-on-one fight, huh? It's one fish against a group of us!

Zhang Jun secretly gave Yang Qi a thumbs-up.

Why secretly?

You, Yang Qi, publicly shouted that I, Zhang Jun, hooked a giant. I can't keep the fish, but you have to give me the material!

Otherwise, what would I brag about?

Yang Qi smiled at Zhang Jun. Neither of them spoke; it was always a silent exchange.

As the saying goes, many hands make light work. With four or five people taking turns, they finally withstood the Bluefin Tuna's first surge.

Some fishing enthusiasts also wanted to try the fishing lines in Yang Qi and Zhang Jun's hands. None of them could last more than 5 minutes under the direct pull.

It was also fortunate that each fishing line had four large buoys attached, which greatly offset the Tuna's pulling force.

Yang Qi and Zhang Jun now had a good understanding of how to operate the fishing lines.

When the Tuna pulled the buoys down, they didn't pull hard. When the buoys resurfaced, they pulled the fishing line forcefully.

They didn't give the Tuna time to rest, constantly depleting its stamina.

After more than an hour, Yang Qi's fishing line was the first to be pulled to the ship's side. A Bluefin Tuna, like a fat pig, was slowly pulled out of the water.

"Holy crap, it's a Bluefin Tuna, another Bluefin Tuna!"

"What a big Bluefin Tuna, definitely more than four hundred catties."

The nearby fishing enthusiasts shouted loudly.

This attracted the attention of the fishing enthusiasts nearby who were struggling with their own Tuna, who all turned to look.

Yang Qi was just about to hand the fishing line to a nearby fishing enthusiast.

Then, Wang Jinxi came over with a rope, bent down, and slipped it around the Bluefin Tuna's large tail.

He aimed the gaff at the Tuna's head and plunged it down hard.

The four-hundred-plus-catty Bluefin Tuna thrashed in its death throes, a violent struggle, but in an instant, it became stiff and motionless.

With a gesture from Wang Jinxi, this Bluefin Tuna was slowly hoisted onto the deck by the crane.

Everyone cheered, discussing whether their own catches might also be Bluefin Tuna.

Although it wasn't caught by them and didn't belong to them, they were still involved, and they felt honored!

Yang Qi walked over to Wang Jinxi and gave him an inquiring look.

Wang Jinxi, unable to hide his joy, whispered:

"All three of ours are Yellowfin Tuna, around 180 catties. Thank you, Yang Qi."

"Don't say that, it's your own luck."

Yang Qi stopped the conversation with a look.

The Bluefin Tuna was hoisted to the fish processing area. Yang Qi saw Ding Kuan gutting the three Yellowfin Tuna.

Another Ship worker had already run over to help Zhang Jun.

"Yang Qi, thank... put the Tuna here! I'll handle it."

Ding Kuan was about to thank him, but seeing Wang Jinxi shake his head at him, he quickly changed the subject.

Yang Qi nodded and said, "You're working hard, A Kuan."

He turned to prepare to handle the other Tuna. He saw Wang Jinxi pull another Ship worker out of the crowd, seemingly giving him instructions.

The Ship worker nodded to him, and seeing Yang Qi approach, he smiled and nodded at Yang Qi again.

Finally, twenty minutes later, the Bluefin Tuna on Zhang Jun's fishing line was also pulled out of the water.

After exclamations of praise, everyone congratulated Zhang Jun, who accepted all the compliments with a beaming smile.

He knew that from today onwards, his great achievements as a fishing master, Zhang Jun, would spread throughout the local fishing community.

The title of Air Force Commander would forever be unrelated to him, Zhang Jun.
