Large yellow croaker!

More than half a meter, at least five pounds of wild large yellow croaker!

Such big fish, good fish, if they can catch one, they can boast about it for a year!

And now, such a fish is blatantly hanging on a "novice’s" fishing hook, many anglers can’t help but clutch their chest.

Heartache so severe it’s hard to breathe!

"Large yellow croaker! Such a big large yellow croaker!" Chen Jianhao shouted, "Holy cow! Land God is awesome!"

Zhao Wenyu widened his eyes, "How could there be such a big large yellow croaker near the shore?"

Lu Zheng smiled as he lifted the rod and retracted it, then grabbed the large yellow croaker, letting it struggle to no avail, removed the hook, and tossed the large yellow croaker into the fish box beside him.

"We’ll have large yellow croaker for dinner." Lu Zheng said to Shen Ying.

"Great!" Shen Ying clapped and laughed.

"How much does this large yellow croaker weigh?" Zhao Wenyu and his four friends gathered around, along with a circle of other anglers.

"Weigh it! Weigh it!"

"I think it should be five pounds."

"Not just five pounds, well over five pounds, not sure if it can pass six pounds."

"Such a big fish, I heard someone once caught a large yellow croaker weighing over seven pounds, but that was at sea."

"This one can be called the king of fish!"

For anglers, someone else catching a big fish is like others getting an SSR card, feeling envy, jealousy, hatred, while unable to resist joining the excitement.

Zhao Wenyu and his friends didn’t bring a scale, so someone from the crowd offered weighing tools.

Five pounds seven ounces.

Unfortunately, not reaching six pounds.

"It’s fine, it’s big enough!"

"This one is worth thirty thousand, right?"

"Hiss—"

Wild large yellow croaker, the bigger the size, the higher the unit price.

Large yellow croaker of about half a pound costs more than 300 yuan per pound, seven or eight ounces cost 800 per pound, around a pound, the unit price is already over a thousand.

Wild large yellow croakers over two pounds are extremely rare, five-pound big fish, it must have escaped countless predators, human capture, and didn’t lack food to grow so large.

"Recently in the news, a fisherman caught a four-pound eight-ounce large yellow croaker, sold for over twenty-six thousand, this young man’s fish is almost a pound heavier than that, definitely worth over thirty thousand."

"Terrifying!"

"I’m so envious, if I caught such a fish, I’d recover the cost of my equipment."

"Too strong!"

Zhao Wenyu and Chen Jianhao exchanged glances.

Although they enjoyed fishing, they hadn’t paid particular attention to fish prices, they just knew wild large yellow croaker is more valuable the larger they are, they didn’t expect Lu Zheng to catch one worth thirty thousand.

Eating it tonight?

Zhao Wenyu’s other two friends felt a bit awkward, feeling quite embarrassed.

Although none of them lacked money, money feels different, for billionaires, spending tens of thousands on a small antique can be a bragging point for years.

"Brother Lu?" Chen Jianhao cautiously approached and called Lu Zheng.

"What’s up?" Lu Zheng poured the fish back into the fish box from the scale.

"Eating it tonight?"

"If we don’t eat it, are we going to put it back?"

Lu Zheng raised his eyebrow, he had swept with Divine Thought for a while to find such a large yellow croaker in the nearby sea.

"Young man, if you sell this fish, it can fetch at least thirty thousand." Someone reminded.

"Thank you." Lu Zheng nodded in gratitude, "Then we definitely have to eat it, you know, a five-pound wild large yellow croaker, an average person wants to eat but can’t get it."

"That’s right, not to mention average people, even wealthy people find it hard to eat, something you can’t buy with money."

"Then isn’t it settled?" Lu Zheng laughed saying to Zhao Wenyu and his friends, "You’re in luck for dinner tonight."

"Land God is awesome!" Chen Jianhao exclaimed.

"Brother Lu is awesome!" Zhao Wenyu slurped.

"Brother Lu is awesome! We must show off on social media!" The other two also cheerfully called out "Brother Lu".

Among anglers, the skilled are called brother.

"Bro, can I take a photo?" a young angler approached.

Lu Zheng indicated it was fine.

Then a group of anglers gathered by Lu Zheng’s fish box to take pictures.

Subsequently, many people had similar photos appearing in their social media circle.

[Today’s small harvest, a five-pound wild large yellow croaker]

[Initially had plans today, but thought about it and still came, unexpectedly with a catch]

[Let me explain to everyone, this is called large yellow croaker, weighing five pounds, considered very rare]

The social media post mainly consisted of selfies with large yellow croaker photos, comments sparking imagination.

Meanwhile, Lu Zheng already sat back on the folding chair, casting the fishing rod again, bait into the sea, "I’m already five pounds seven ounces ahead of you."

Zhao Wenyu, "..."

Chen Jianhao, "..."

The two picked up their rods, eyes focused, holding their breath, starting to fish.

Unfortunately...

Luck doesn’t change with human will, as time passed, Zhao Wenyu’s two friends each caught a few half-pound small fish, yet they remained empty-handed.

"Good thing good thing..."

Zhao Wenyu couldn’t help but glance at Lu Zheng, luckily ever since catching that large yellow croaker, no fish had bitten the hook again.

Then...

"Whoosh!"

The float bobbed, another fish caught.

"What the heck?"

Zhao Wenyu’s eyes widened, then saw Lu Zheng skillfully pulling and letting out the line, step by step, guiding the underwater fish towards the shore.

Though Lu Zheng’s actions didn’t seem laborious, his strength was incomparable to ordinary people, catching that large yellow croaker earlier was light and enjoyable, not showing exertion.

"Land God! Big fish or small fish?" Chen Jianhao approached again.

"Bigger than the last one."

"Holy cow?"

Zhao Wenyu and Chen Jianhao approached again, "Brother Lu be careful, don’t let the line break."

Nearby a few "air force" anglers also paid attention.

"Could it be another large yellow croaker?"

"Impossible, how could there be so many heavy wild large yellow croakers?"

"Probably just a stone bass."

"But he said it feels heavier than the last one, stone bass are rarely over five pounds."

"Could be a stone bass."

"No way? There’s rarely stone bass here."

"Someone caught a blue-spotted grouper."

"Very rare and quite small, most stone bass are... Holy cow?"

Lu Zheng lifted the rod, revealing a bright stone bass on the hook.

Moreover, its size was massive, almost twice as large as the previous large yellow croaker.

"Is this a joke?"

"Exceeds one meter, right?"

"This fish is definitely over ten pounds!"

"Is this a fish you can catch from the shore?"

"This is... seven-banded grouper, right?"

"Yes, it’s so beautiful!"

Zhao Wenyu and Chen Jianhao stared blankly as Lu Zheng effortlessly tossed the seven-banded grouper onto the shore.

The fish struggled wildly, far crazier than the previous large yellow croaker.

"Boom!"

Then, Lu Zheng punched towards the grouper’s head, quieting the world.
