The Fisherman Who Never Catches Fish-Chapter 397 - 235 Ah, it broke... (Subscribe please)_2
"?"
Fang Hao was baffled again.
What the heck is this?
Is it targeting me?
Just moments ago there was a group of fish here, I merely changed spots and tossed the hook into that area, and all the fish scattered.
This time Fang Hao definitely felt something was off.
Once was okay, but now it’s happened again.
He thought the problem might be with his...
Fishing rod.
Could it really be the fishing rod causing this?
How bizarre.
Now Fang Hao really started doubting his life, like why do these fish keep avoiding him every single time?
It’s not like there’s anything special here; I’m using the same bait as Xiao Pang and bought this fishing rod specifically for small fish from a store, not the one awarded by the system.
I mean, which part is different from Xiao Pang’s?
The only difference is the person using them.
"Turtle Qi surrounding me?"
This made Fang Hao a bit depressed.
The only explanation is that his luck is just terrible right now.
Bad luck all around.
These fish are like they’re completely incompatible with him.
They won’t bite at all.
Whenever they encounter him, they avoid him as much as possible.
"Streamer, don’t hesitate, just blow up the fish."
"I think blowing up fish at sea isn’t illegal."
"These fish are so disrespectful; let’s show them what we can do!"
"Definitely blow them up."
The viewers in the live stream teasingly encouraged Fang Hao to blow up the fish.
Blow up fish?
You’re thinking too much.
Those unrealistic suggestions from the troll viewers, Fang Hao wouldn’t bother with them.
Did you think one can just blow up fish on a whim?
Even though we are at sea and blowing up fish wouldn’t be controlled, where would you even get the explosives from?
That’s just unrealistic.
Plus, Fang Hao isn’t looking to eat fish; he wants to catch the fish, the traditional way.
Blowing up fish would just be a way to vent frustration.
Sigh.
Seeing another group of small fish just scatter like that, Fang Hao also felt very helpless.
After that, he secured the fishing rod and took a break himself.
Really tired in heart.
He initially thought it was the location, but now it doesn’t seem like it.
So this time Fang Hao had no intention of changing spots again, since swapping around doesn’t make a difference, he might as well just take a break here.
Meanwhile, Xiao Pang caught two small fish, both were scruffy little things, not what Xiao Pang aimed to catch.
These small fish were only the size of a palm, and after Xiao Pang unhooked them, he threw them back into the sea.
Fang Hao watched with great envy.
Comparing himself to others was really frustrating.
He really wanted to catch fish, but ended up catching nothing.
The fish others didn’t want to catch, kept getting caught.
What on earth was going on?
Fang Hao felt depressed, watching Xiao Pang catch fish while his own area remained empty.
Sigh...
If it were a matter of skill gap, he would have accepted it.
But Xiao Pang’s skills are average too.
Why do they bite his hook and not mine?
"Bro Hao... do you want these fish? Should I save one for you?"
Xiao Pang noticed Fang Hao’s gaze but misunderstood his thoughts, thinking he wanted the fish, so he pondered whether to keep a small one.
"No..."
Why bother taking fish not caught by myself.
These small fish aren’t tasty anyway, no meat on them.
Before this, we ate big fish, which were delicious.
He didn’t want to eat fish, nor did he like these kinds of fish; he wanted to catch his own.
Catching these fish to break his unlucky streak.
That’s what he really wanted.
"HAHAHA, this really hit the streamer in the feels."
"Well done, Abs Bro."
Everyone in the livestream had a blast.
The atmosphere in the live stream was getting better and the viewership was reaching a chilling 65 million.
This level of horror was no joke.
Seeing Fang Hao didn’t want it, Xiao Pang went ahead and threw the fish back into the sea.
All the small fish he caught were returned back to the sea as well.
"Bro Hao, something’s on your fishing rod."
Just as he had thrown back the last small fish, he suddenly noticed Fang Hao’s fishing rod.
At that moment, his fishing rod moved.
In an instant, Fang Hao sprang into action, moving swiftly.
His reaction speed really wasn’t for show.
The moment Fang Hao got up, he quickly grabbed the fishing rod that was affixed to the yacht.
When he held the fishing rod, he could instantly feel the tugging force from it.
Such strong power.
Fang Hao could feel that this force was enormous, probably over a hundred pounds, perhaps even more.
The fishing rod bent into a large arc.
But Fang Hao’s heart couldn’t rise to happiness.
It wasn’t because of what he caught.
What he caught this time was likely a fish.
Judging from the feel, it was something alive.
And with such strong struggling power, the fish underneath must be quite big.
But precisely because of this, Fang Hao had a bad premonition and wasn’t very happy.
Because the fishing rod he was using wasn’t his usual one, rewarded by the system; it was much less resilient.
Fang Hao was worried…whether the fishing rod or the line might break.
Damn, he originally switched to this rod just to catch small fish, but unexpectedly caught such a big ’fish’.
Really don’t know what to say about this luck.
Fang Hao was now very nervous, just afraid that the fishing rod might break.
It wasn’t the rod he was worried about; if it broke, it broke. He was worried about the fish.
Having finally caught such a big fish and to have it escape like that would be terribly upsetting.
Others also noticed something off about Fang Hao.
"Why doesn’t the host seem happy?"
"Did he catch something else again?"
"Could it be a corpse?"
From the helicopter crash above, there were still three bodies not yet recovered.
Everyone wondered if it might be one of those three bodies.
"It doesn’t seem likely."
"Look at the host’s demeanor... I think he might have caught a fish."
"Caught a fish? Then why isn’t the host happy?"
People found it a bit odd.
It took a while before they realized.
"The host is worried about his fishing rod, afraid it might break and the fish will escape."
"Hahaha, so that’s it."
"Master Yu, you’ve really got to do your part."
"Definitely need to see that fishing rod break!"
Once they realized this, they actually hoped to see Fang Hao’s fishing rod break, as that would make them happy.
They liked to see Fang Hao’s misfortune.
That was far more satisfying for them than seeing Fang Hao happily catching fish.
If Fang Hao caught a fish, he might be the only happy one.
But if Fang Hao’s fishing rod broke and the fish escaped, then everyone in the live stream would be thrilled.
…
Fang Hao didn’t have much mind to care about those right now.
His palms were sweating.
He was being extremely cautious, all just to not let the fish escape.
The struggling force in his hands grew stronger, the fish probably nearing a hundred pounds.
This was Fang Hao’s estimate from the force he felt.
It was also because of his strength that he could hold on.
The strength of a sea fish’s struggle was huge, much greater than that of a freshwater fish.
A nearly hundred-pound fish like this could suddenly exert a force of several hundred pounds.
This was the reason why Fang Hao worried the fishing rod might break.
From the force felt in his hands, Fang Hao was sure the thing below was a big fish!
Snap.
But his luck was just so bad, after holding on for two minutes, the fishing rod snapped.
Once the rod broke, the big fish took the opportunity and escaped.
This ordinary fishing rod, after all, couldn’t withstand the big fish’s thrashing.
Continuing to struggle fiercely, the rod reached its limit and then broke.
Once the rod broke, the fish escaped, and Fang Hao’s heart bled.
Almost couldn’t catch his breath.
Shit!!!
It was a big fish.
It was just about to be caught.
Just a little bit more.
Really, just a tiny bit more.
About to catch this fish.
But in the end, the fishing rod disappointingly broke!!!
Ah, ah, ah.
Fang Hao was about to explode in anger.
Just his luck that he had switched to a normal rod this time, and it had let him catch such a big fish. He changed to this rod just to catch small fish, never anticipating such a mishap.
Really felt a surge of blood rush.
If his Adamantium Alloy Fishing Rod had been used to catch this fish, it definitely wouldn’t have escaped.
But now… all efforts were in vain!
