After failing the college entrance examination, I relied on fishing to reach the top of my life

Koh Samui has not been fully developed in this era, and the best mode of transportation on the island is to rent a motorcycle.

Su Mo and Xu Kun also followed the locals, rented two cars and drove towards the venue of the fishing competition.

After a while, they reached their destination.

After paying a fee, Su Mo successfully registered, and he also knew some information about this competition.

This competition is a local competition held to attract tourists and increase popularity. For this reason, they also obtained a license from the America Consortium to allow contestants to enter the natural gas mining area.

Because the prize money was quite good, it attracted many fishing guys to participate in the competition, and even some foreign fishing experts. No, Su Mo saw a Westerner with blond hair on the poster. If he combed it With his afro, he looked like a real Caccatello, and his past record was marked under his portrait, making him the favorite to win this competition.

What’s more special about this competition is that it is divided into two stages: the qualifying stage and the main draw.

In the qualifying stage, first of all, all registered contestants can only use the fishing gear and bait issued by the organizer within the specified range for a one-day offshore fishing competition.

After the competition, the organizer will convert the points based on the type and weight of the catch caught by the players, and the top twenty players will enter the main competition.

In the main stage, players will no longer be restricted to the competition area, and you can even go fishing near the offshore drilling platform! And at that time, only catches of a certain weight would be counted as points, so the main race was also called the Giant Race!

I have to say that this competition is still very difficult.

First of all, in the qualifying stage, because there is a points mechanism based on the type of catch, it is not just catching more fish that will win. The level of catch points also needs to be considered. In the main stage of the competition, it is even more difficult to catch a giant fish to count the points. The difficulty is not ordinary.

Through the small manual issued by the organizer, Su Mo still learned some information.

In order to let the contestants understand the points value of various catches, the organizers marked all the types of catches in the nearby waters. This made Su Mo understand that there were no horseshoe crabs within the scope of the qualifying stage!

This means that he must advance to the main competition before he can go looking for horseshoe crab schools!

However, after Su Mo had just read the competition system, he immediately became confident. Wasn't it just to enter the top twenty? This is nothing! After all, when it comes to fishing, he has never been afraid of anyone.

After reporting their names, the two returned to the hotel they had booked and waited quietly for the start of the game the next day.

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, Su Mo arrived at the competition location on the beach.

At this time, the contestants had already arrived, and there were actually hundreds of them. This shows that fishermen are really all over the world!

After checking his qualifications, Su Mo put on a small vest with the number "25" written on it, and then followed the staff to the beach.

Parked in front of him was a very small boat. Apart from a living water tank, it could only accommodate one person. The only thing on the boat was a fishing rod, a few coils of fishing line and a row of various types of fish. Apart from the hook, there was only a box of mineral water and a few pieces of bread.

To be fair, this is all the supplies that the players can carry. With just these, you have to stay on the boat for a day, which is also a test for your physical strength.

But as we all know, it is common for fishermen to not eat in order to fish...

Su Mo complained a few words in his mind before boarding the boat. He looked left and right and found that the boat on the left was the favorite "Kakatero", while the boat on the right was still empty at this time. .

At this time, "Cakatero" was bragging to the surrounding players about his fishing skills and how many fishing competitions he had participated in.

This made some nearby female players look at this rich and handsome young man with admiration.

After listening for a while, even Su Mo already knew that his name was George, and he had won five America's fishing competition championships.

At this moment, a gunshot was heard, and it turned out that the game had officially begun!

But Su Mo did not start the boat immediately. Instead, he waited for the other contestants to leave the beach before slowly starting the boat and sailing towards the uninhabited sea.

He originally wanted to find a cleaner place to start fishing, but he found that because there were so many contestants and the competition venue was restricted, there was no way to completely get rid of other contestants.

So Su Mo had no choice but to find a place with few people and stop the boat. At this time, he was speechless and found that the George from before was actually nearby.

George also discovered Su Mo at this time, and actually took the initiative to say in English: "I didn't realize that you are also a master, and you can judge that there are fish schools here based on the ocean currents and tides like me."

At this point, George raised his head proudly, pointed his nostrils at Su Mo, and continued: "It's a pity that you met me, the protagonist of this game. It is impossible for you to win today."

Hearing this, Su Mo's mind was filled with questions.

I secretly thought, why do you have so many inner dramas and yet you are so average in your speech? You really think you are Carcatello!

He didn't want to talk to this guy, so he secretly took out the magical bait box, first threw the distributed bait into it for conversion, and then took out a booklet and read it.

When George saw that Su Mo ignored him, he was not angry. Instead, he skillfully started hanging the bait, throwing the pole, and started fishing.

Even though this guy was a bit of a middle-class fisherman, his fishing skills were really good, and he caught a big fish with a lot of points in a short while.

It seems that he has judged the location of the fish very accurately.

It’s just that his mouth is a little bit rough. As he threw the fish into the live water tank, he said loudly: "You all give up, I must be the champion today!"

As he said that, he cast another shot, and soon he caught another fish, and then launched another mental attack: "Oh, this game is really boring. The difficulty is too low for this protagonist."

The hands of several other players holding fishing rods around them immediately trembled, obviously affected by his words.

It turned out that this guy was using this method to create pressure on the players around him. Not only was he not stupid, he was actually very smart.

But this was of no use to Su Mo. He opened the box of mineral water, took out a bottle and took a sip, then took out another bottle and poured the water directly into the sea, leaving only the empty bottle.

Then he pulled out the coil of fishing line, skillfully tied the fishhook and hung the lead pendant, then cut the fishing line and tied it to the empty bottle.

This is a simple fishing device called puller fishing. This fishing method can catch bottom fish without a fishing rod. It is a fishing method favored by many fishermen.

Just like that, in a short while Su Mo poured out ten bottles of mineral water and prepared ten pulleys for fishing.

At this time, the bait in the bait box was also changed.

After putting bait on all ten fishhooks, Su Mo threw them all into the sea.

After about ten minutes, Su Mo picked up a mineral water bottle from the sea and began to reel in the line.

After a while, a small red Eastern Star Spot was pulled onto the boat. The Eastern Star Spot’s points in this competition were not low, much higher than ordinary catches.

Immediately afterwards, Su Mo pulled all the remaining nine mineral water bottles onto the boat. There were fish on every hook. Although not as good as the first one, they were all pretty good, and there were even two crayfish.

Seeing Su Mo's gains, George raised his eyebrows and immediately put down his contempt for Su Mo.

He didn't expect that Su Mo was really a master and would even think of using this method to speed up the fishing rhythm.

But Su Mo's next operation blinded George's titanium alloy dog's eyes. Su Mo rested for a short while on the boat, and after packing up the fishing line, he directly hung the Eastern Star Spot on the fish. Hooked and thrown into the sea!
