Carefully placing the grass carp into the net, Zhang Yang continued fishing for groundbait, patiently starting a routine of casting at fixed intervals.
The bites were still very sparse, with over ten casts possibly yielding nothing, but Zhang Yang wasn't discouraged,
The 5.4-meter fishing rod combined with the extra challenge from the large flying lead seemed to have no effect on Zhang Yang, as he cast it tirelessly, one after another.
Finding the right direction, efforts always pay off, and after just over ten minutes, Zhang Yang once again saw a grass carp take the bait. After a bout of maneuvering, yet another grass carp over five pounds was netted.
With two consecutive fish caught, Zhang Yang's pressure in this competition was completely gone,
A teammate suggested that the grass carp might like elastic pellets, so Zhang Yang hung the elastic pellets soaked with additives on the lower hook, while keeping the top hook baited with groundbait, combining attraction and fishing.
