Chapter 62
When Qu Xiao calmed down again, Ning Mu Di had already arranged the equipment. From the fishing gear holders to the bait for making nests, she had arranged all the details in an orderly manner.
Ning Mudi is indeed a talented fisherman. She has extremely dexterous skills in organizing fishing gear. The numerous and complex equipment seem to have souls in her hands. The hooks and lines are clear, and there is no disturbing appearance when placed close to each other.
Crazy entanglement.
On the other hand, Qu Xiao seemed very anxious. Although there was only one fishing rod, the fishing line hooked on it was intertwined and meandering back and forth.
Qu Xiao spent a long time sorting it out with his hands, but he still couldn't figure out the logic between these lines. Just like Huang Laosi said before, Qu Xiao really didn't have any extraordinary talent in the field of technique.
Ning Mudi couldn't help but smile when she saw this. She felt inexplicably happy when she saw Qu Xiao deflated. She stepped forward and took the fishing rod from Qu Xiao's hand. She untied the knot in just ten seconds.
"Na."
Handing the fishing rod back to Qu Xiao, Ning Mudi raised his chin proudly. Qu Xiao was quite shocked by this. How could this little girl untie such a troublesome knot so quickly...
After taking the fishing rod, Qu Xiao used the bracket sponsored by Ning Mudi to support the tail of the fishing rod. The line and empty hook floated freely on the nearby water. At this point, the pole position before fishing was finally arranged.
.
The next step is to "make bait".
As we all know, fishing requires bait, and for experienced fishermen, bait is not just a simple earthworm or small fish.
Ning Mudi brought an empty small box from his fishing position, then picked up several bags of powder on the side, took out their parts in a certain proportion and mixed them together.
Then, she added a small spoonful of the reagent in the small bottle on the side. The smell could be described as "the fragrance of ten miles away". Not to mention the fish, even Qu Xiao found it difficult to resist the temptation of the smell.
It was as if there was some kind of magic power in his heart. As soon as Qu Xiao smelled this smell, he felt an inexplicable hunger in his stomach. This seemed to be some kind of appetizing potion. Mix it with water and powder and mix it for a small amount.
A viscous solid mixture was born.
Seeing this, Qu Xiao couldn't help but ask, "What is this for?"
Ning Mudi replied: "Make a nest."
Qu Xiao, a layman, all knows the term "making a nest". Arranging bait around fishing spots to attract fish is what fishing guys often refer to as "making a nest".
"How is it? It smells delicious, right?" Ning Mudi smiled and turned to look at Qu Xiao. The forearm of her right hand used for stirring was currently covered with the brown sticky substance in the box.
It might seem a bit disgusting at first glance, but Qu Xiao had to admit that it tasted really good. As long as he didn't associate it with anything like that, Qu Xiao felt that he could completely accept it.
"Do you want to try it?" Ning Mudi asked him.
Qu Xiao nodded. Since he wanted to learn, mixing bait was also one of his required courses.
Taking the small box from Ning Mudi's hand, Qu Xiao also stretched his forearm in and stirred it clockwise for a few times like a stick. He clearly felt that his forearm was beginning to be hindered.
How is this going?
He opened his mouth to Ning Mudi and said, "I feel this thing has become firmer."
Ning Mu Di was not surprised when she heard this. She nodded and signaled to Qu Xiao that he could stop for now.
"Just make it firmer." Ning Mudi continued, "This means that the powder inside is not evenly mixed and begins to absorb water. The bait for making nests is basically sufficient to this extent, but if it is used for fishing bait, it needs to be mixed well.
A little more compact.”
Then Qu Xiao saw Ning Mu Di grab a small handful of bait from the box and put it in the small bowl next to it. This should be the bait she prepared for this fishing trip. By the way, she grabbed it with her hands.
The bait quickly becomes compact.
"Is this enough?" Qu Xiao was a little surprised. In his impression, fishing often requires a lot of bait.
But judging from Ning Mu Di's preparation, the quantity was not large. According to normal consumption, this bait would only be enough for the two of them to toss for more than an hour at most.
Ning Mudi smiled when he heard this and explained: "The weather is hot and the air is dry. The bait I am using now will not be effective if it is mixed and dried for a long time, so you cannot mix too much at one time and try to control the time consumption as much as possible."
Lose."
"That's it..."
Qu Xiao nodded, and then he saw Ning Mudi grab a handful of powder and then sprinkle it carefully on the prepared fishing bait.
"What are you doing?"
"This is called scattering. It's a secondary method to attract fish to the bait after making a nest." Ning Mudi said as she hung the bait covered with a thick layer of powder on the small hook at the front end of the fishing line.
The hook is so deep that the hook tip is almost pushing out.
"The core bait should be hung deep so that the fish will not easily break free after biting the hook..." Ning Mudi explained while doing hand movements, "However, because the loose part cannot be bonded too tightly to the core bait, so you
When hanging the bait, be careful not to pinch it too hard.”
"Is this to prevent the powder from spreading?"
"Yes." Ning Mudi winked, "It seems that you now understand the basic logic of fishing. In the final analysis, this is a game of creating traps."
"From making nests to scattering, the purpose is to attract fish schools and mix the core bait among them so that the fish bite by mistake when eating. As long as you understand this logic, you can derive it
The fishing method is suitable for you. For example, I like to make three nest materials first and then bait."
After Ning Madi finished speaking, the first batch of nest materials had been thrown far away with the shovel in her hand, followed by the second batch, and the third batch...
After the three batches of nesting materials were finished, she immediately picked up the fishing rod and threw the fishing line out. The landing point was accurate, right in the center of the nesting location!
"See, this is technology!"
Ning Mudi clapped his hands to show off to Qu Xiao, and Ning Mudi then asked him to give it a try. As a result, Qu Xiao's performance was like a disaster. Not only was it difficult to accurately locate the position when making continuous nests, but the position of the lower hook also deviated by a lot.
"this……"
Seeing such clumsy operation, Qu Xiao himself didn't know what to say. Maybe he really didn't have the talent in this area. Whether it was line management or hook throwing, he couldn't match Ning Mu Di's skills. Geniuses and ordinary people
It seems that there is only a few words difference between people, but in fact, this is a gap that many people cannot overcome in their lifetime. Qu Xiao can feel that no matter how long he practices this thing, it will be difficult for him to reach the level of He Ning Mu Di.
Same height.
Just give up.
After trying a few more times, Qu Xiao lost the motivation to continue thinking. He turned to Ning Mu Di and asked if there was a simpler method.
"If it's simpler..." Ning Mudi thought for a moment, "Yes, it is true. You don't have to focus on making a nest. You can also do it sparingly?"
"Sanda?"
"It means throwing a large area of nest material at one time to increase the attraction to fish schools by expanding the area where the nest material is distributed."
After Ning Mudi finished speaking and demonstrated, he took out a large spoonful, and the sticky substance fell like flowers, and finally fell sparsely to the upper layer of the water.
"Like this." She raised her finger and pointed in the distance. The beneficial area of making a nest in this way was indeed several times larger than the concentrated nest making just now. However, there were also disadvantages, because the nest materials were scattered and the fish were scattered.
It will not be tightly attracted around the hook bait, so the speed of setting the hook is relatively low, but for Qu Xiao, this is not a big impact.
As long as the base of the fish school is large enough, his speed of setting the hook will not be too slow than others. If he can get the molted skin of the contained object in the other world, Qu Xiao is actually very confident that he can overtake in the corner.
"That's how I'll do it."
Stupid people have their own choices. Qu Xiao feels that this method is quite suitable for him. The highly fault-tolerant operability means that he does not need to study too carefully. Anyway, what he relies on is not technology. As long as he can shed his skin,
These are all false.
Just know how to lift the pole.
Qu Xiao set a standard for himself. Next, Ning Mudi taught him the technique of hooking and lifting the pole step by step. This thing is easy to say, it is just a pulling method, but to do it...
It's really too difficult.
After taking off the hook four or five times, Qu Xiao finally caught a small fish. Fortunately, the fish didn't have the strength to struggle. Otherwise, with his current technique that relies solely on brute force, he might have to continue to "air force".
Panting from exhaustion, Qu Xiao looked as if he had just finished strenuous exercise under the scorching sun. He originally thought that the most torturous part of fishing was waiting, but he did not expect that it would be as strenuous as pulling the fish.
Using the energy of the black stone to quickly adjust his own condition, Qu Xiao then learned some advanced pulling skills from Ning Mudi. Needless to say, there is no need to say more about paying out and rewinding the line, as well as more difficult techniques such as "hanging rod".
Ning Mudi also taught Qu Xiao without reservation.
The two of them continued practicing like this until the evening, and the heat in the air began to dissipate with the evening breeze. Qu Xiao finally found some fishing skills, but he was still far behind the entry-level standards.
There was no way, this guy's foundation was really bad. Even though Ning Mu Di was teaching him very seriously, Qu Xiao was like a wooden man and couldn't do the key points mentioned by Ning Mu Di.
No matter whether it was posture, technique, or the feeling of exerting force, he felt that he couldn't find the trick. It was like a blind old man running a maze. No matter how bright the exit light was, he couldn't feel it at all.
One person's study, two people's torture, a whole afternoon passed, and the two of them caught less than ten fish in total. You must know that the fish feed Ning Mudi chose was a very luxurious species. It would be better if it were replaced by a slightly experienced fish.
I had a professional fishing guy do it, and I could fish the pond cleanly in one afternoon without any problems.
Ning Mu Di is not to blame for this result. She actually tried her best. The main purpose of coming here was to teach Qu Xiao, so she only landed two poles in total, and both of them caught fish.
Minus the two fish she caught herself, the remaining few fish were caught by Qu Xiao. This guy was like a natural disaster when it came to fishing. Not to mention catching live fish, even if he killed the fish,
Chapter completed!
