After removing the fishing hook.
Lin Tian searched for a dead, straight tree branch nearby.
He tied one end of the branch to the fishing line, tied the hook to the end of the line, and hung a cut mineral water bottle on the middle part as a float.
This way,
A simple fishing rod was made.
"Brother Tian, are you going fishing?"
"This fishing rod...emmm, it's pretty much the same as the one I made when I was a kid!"
"With this, Brother Tian won't think he can catch fish, will he?"
"The environment here is good, but isn't this fishing rod looking down on the fish?"
…
The audience also saw Lin Tian's poorly made fishing rod and started to make fun of it.
Lin Tian didn't mind.
No matter how good a fishing rod is, it's useless if you can't catch any fish.
He was confident that even with this simple hook, he could still catch fish.
The fishing rod was ready, now all he needed was bait.
Lin Tian looked at his backpack, which only had a lunch cake and some wild berries he picked up along the way.
Among them was Rubus parvifolius, a sweet strawberry that, when watered with spirit water, should appeal to fish.
After some thought,
Lin Tian mashed the Rubus parvifolius into a paste, mixed it with mud, stirred in spirit water and attached it to the hook.
Then he cast it into the river.
Seeing this, Mama Panda trotted over, her small eyes fixed on the surface of the river.
"Streamer, using fruit as bait?"
"Can this catch fish?"
"Fish: Who do you think you are? Testing me with this? Who do you think you are?!"
…
The audience laughed at the bait, thinking Lin Tian would be going home empty-handed.
Lin Tian didn't care.
He cast the hook into the river.
Splash, the hook fell into the water, splashing a small droplet.
The hook sank into the water.
Next, all he had to do was wait for the fish to bite.
Lin Tian used his clothes as a cushion, sat cross-legged by the stream, and Mama Panda squatted beside him, her small eyes intently watching the surface of the river.
While waiting for the fish to bite, Lin Tian was about to take a sip of water.
Just then, the float bobbing on the surface of the river suddenly started to shake violently.
Lin Tian's eyes lit up.
There was a fish biting the hook!
The viewers in the live stream also noticed, seemingly a fish was caught, all their eyes were fixed on the scene.
And here,
Lin Tian, realizing the fish was caught, quickly got up and pulled the hook up with all his might.
With this force, Lin Tian felt something was wrong.
The hook was too light.
Whoosh.
The hook broke free from the water, describing a perfect arc in mid-air.
Soon it landed on the riverbank.
The viewers' eyes instantly shifted to the hook.
They wanted to see what kind of fish was on the hook.
Upon seeing this, everyone burst out laughing.
They saw several fish hanging on the bait.
But these fish were all very small.
About the length of a finger.
"Hahaha, I thought Brother Tian had caught some big fish, but it turns out they're just thumb-sized fish."
"Is this even considered a fish?"
"This fish isn't even enough for one bite."
"Brother Tian, forget it, such small fish, let them go back to the river."
…
The barrage was filled with laughter.
Lin Tian was also a little helpless, he didn't expect that the first catch, though not empty, was indeed a little small.
Lin Tian was about to put the hook away and release these small fish back into the river.
At this moment,
He noticed these small fish, but suddenly froze.
These fish seem like...a very delicious type of small fish?
Lin Tian took a closer look.
The tail was short and slender, the scales shimmered a light blue in the sunlight.
Hmm?
These are woodleaf fish!
Suddenly, Lin Tian was filled with joy.
"Haha, it seems my luck is still good, everyone look, these are woodleaf fish!"
Woodleaf fish.
They are typically found only in the Sichuan and Chongqing regions.
They are a very delicious type of small fish.
Many people chase after them, and in the supermarket, they cost at least 100 yuan per kilogram.
These woodleaf fish hanging on the bait weigh at least dozens of grams.
"Woodleaf fish?"
"What is woodleaf fish?"
"Wow! Just checked on Baidu, this woodleaf fish is expensive!"
"It says online that this fish is very delicious."
"And this fish can only grow this big."
"Damn, I'm envious!"
…
Upon hearing that they were woodleaf fish, the viewers were instantly envious.
Lin Tian smiled with satisfaction.
Not bad, not empty-handed.
Mama Panda, seeing that fish was caught, quickly ran over, trying to grab the fish.
Lin Tian quickly called out to her.
"Mama Bear, don't touch it, be careful of the hook."
Lin Tian was worried that Mama Panda, in her eagerness to eat the fish, would bite the hook.
He quickly took the fish off the hook before Mama Panda could, carefully placing them in a bamboo basket nearby.
Just a few small woodleaf fish, not enough to eat.
He had to keep fishing.
Lin Tian continued to squat on the ground fishing.
On the other side, Mama Panda, seeing that Lin Tian caught the fish and wouldn't give it to her, was instantly upset.
She rubbed her round head against Lin Tian, acting cute.
"Yingying~"
(Fish, want to eat)
Mama Panda knew that this act of cuteness always worked on Lin Tian.
But Lin Tian didn't agree, this little fish wasn't even enough for Mama Panda to take a bite.
"Don't worry, I'll catch some more, then you can eat."
Lin Tian rubbed Mama Panda's round head to comfort her.
Mama Panda snorted, still upset.
She stared at the fishing rod in Lin Tian's hand and suddenly nudged him.
"Yingying~."
(Fish, fish yourself)
Mama Panda rubbed against Lin Tian, pointing at the fishing rod.
Lin Tian understood what Mama Panda meant.
But he didn't react for a moment.
Mama Bear wants to fish herself?
This is not
This is a panda.
How did she think of fishing? !
Lin Tian was surprised.
Mama Panda, seeing that Lin Tian wasn't reacting, continued to rub her head against him, acting cute, and pointing at the fishing rod.
At this point,
Lin Tian was sure that Mama Panda really wanted to fish.
"Alright, I'll make you a fishing rod, but can you even catch a fish?"
Lin Tian looked at Mama Panda's clumsy bear paws, he doubted if she could even learn to hold a fishing rod.
Even if she can hold it, she probably won't be able to sit still, she'll run off before the fish bites.
Forget it,
Just consider it a toy for Mama Panda to play with.
Shaking his head, Lin Tian didn't think much of it.
He found a thicker branch nearby, made another simple fishing rod, and handed it to Mama Panda.
He also helped her put on the bait.
The viewers were stunned at this scene.
"?????"
"No, what are you doing, Brother Tian?"
"Let Mama Panda fish?"
"Good lord! What a good lord!"
"Brother Tian, this move is really bad, very bad!"
"Can Mama Panda even fish?!"
"This is not a joke!"
