Go back to the past to be the fishing king

Chapter 114 Marukyu Cup Fishing Competition

Around the entire city of W, there are about a dozen black pit fishing grounds that are operating, large and small.

Under Zhang Yang's actual combat fishing, Xiao Huangmian went from being unnoticed at the beginning to gradually emerging, and almost everyone knows it later.

The myths of going ashore continued one after another, and the market recognition soared rapidly, and began to radiate to other surrounding cities.

Three months later.

Zhang Yang's fishing gear company has expanded 18 offline agents, and the daily shipment of new small yellow noodle baits from the factory exceeds 500 catties.
The best raw materials are selected for processing and production, and the cost per catty is no more than ten yuan, 22 yuan for wholesale and [-] yuan for retail, and the profit margin is very impressive.

If it is said that the first pot of gold was earned through small fights, then the current Little Yellow Noodles is equivalent to digging a gold mine with rich reserves.

With the increasing recognition of the small yellow-faced bait in the market, the original black pit bait market was quickly reshuffled. For a while, the sales of imported Marukyu carp bait fell precipitously around W City.

……

Tianjin, Marukyu Co., Ltd. branch Tianjin branch conference room.

A middle-aged manager in his 40s frowned as he looked at the sales data of Marukyu bait for the past two months made by his subordinates, with a serious expression on his face.

"In the past two months, shipments of the company's main products have fallen off a cliff in many cities in the north. Can anyone tell me what happened!!"

Although the boss's voice was not loud, the entire meeting room was silent, and no one dared to speak, for fear that if he didn't pay attention, his anger would fall on him.

After a full 30 seconds of silence, still no one spoke, Li Hongyan looked at a company executive on the right.

"Old Zhang, you have a deep understanding of the company's sales business, tell me your opinion!"

Lao Zhang, who was nominated, sighed: "We have been importing Marukyu bait for so many years. Although it is a niche bait, the shipment volume in the region has always been relatively stable!

As for the decline in sales in recent months, I contacted my previous partner, Fang Wen, and the answer they gave was very vague. I can't guarantee the real reason! "

"Say what you hear! Don't worry!"

"The person communicating with me is a fishing gear wholesaler!

According to them, the resistance to sales of Marukyu baits at the retail end during the recent period is mainly related to the new competing baits of the same type on the market.

The baits such as Huangshi Wushuang, which have a relatively large amount of consumption, are actually not used much in competitive competitions. A large part of them are used by people in paid fishing grounds.

But now, a kind of bait called Xiaohuangmian has appeared on the market, and it is rapidly spreading around City W.
Our sales decline is mainly in these surrounding cities!

According to my personal analysis, it may be the main reason affecting shipments! "

"Little yellow noodles?"

"Yes! The price of this kind of bait is not low, 31 catties, but it works very well in black pit farmed fish fishing. The new product has occupied the original market share of the original four King Kongs, resulting in a decline in the entire shipment!"

"31 catties? Compared with our imported bait, its price is not cheap! Have you done a more detailed investigation?"

"I bought some, and found that it is a bait that is obviously different from the traditional bait! I went to the experimental pond to try it, and found that the effect is really obvious, not worse than the company's imported products!"

"Isn't it worse than imported bait?"

"Yes! The actual combat effect is very good! The state is similar to Wushuang Tianxia, ​​but there are obvious differences! I am not a professional researcher on this, and I can't say which is better!"

Hearing this, Li Hongyan nodded: "The technical issues will be submitted to the head office for further study.

Next, we need to come up with a plan to solve the current sales dilemma!Do you have any good suggestions? "

"Otherwise, go to the head office to apply for a price reduction? Now many large-scale merchants are shipping at high prices, and they are still hyping some old-style packaging products!" One of the sales managers said cautiously.

"I think the best way is to sponsor the competition! In the past two years, our advertisements and competition sponsorships have decreased significantly. If we can use the title of the competition to increase our brand influence, maybe we can recover the decline!"

The boss sitting in the chief position was not in a hurry to express his opinion, but frowned slightly and thought about it.

……

A week later, the general agent of Marukyu bait in city W received news from the company that the branch company was planning to sponsor a local fishing competition.

Zhang Yang shop.

In the morning, Zhang Yang received a call from Lao Zhao not long after he returned to the store after going out for a fishing trip.

"Xiao Zhang, have you heard that there is going to be a Marukyu Cup fishing competition in the city!"

"Marujiu Cup? What time and where is it?" Zhang Yang's heart skipped a beat when he heard the news, and he couldn't help asking.

"It's at the Liyuan fishing ground on the airport road in the city! I saw a registration advertisement in the group just now! Then I will send it to you on your mobile phone, sign up together, and play?"

"it is good!"

A few minutes later, the regulations for the Marukyu Cup National Fishing Competition were posted on Zhang Yang's WeChat.

Zhang Yang also knew about Liyuan fishing ground in his previous life. Compared with other black pits, this fishing ground is obviously different.

The business direction of this fishing ground is the pole training pond, rather than the traditional black pit charging model.

The fishing ground has set up two standard Taiwan fishing competition pits, which can accept and host formal Taiwan fishing competitions, but all formal fishing competitions organized in W City are generally here.

It is said that the boss is very energetic in the circle.

The competition is scheduled for the weekend, and there are still three days to go. The total number of applicants is 80 people, which are divided into two games, the target fish and the mixed fish. It is a relatively formal Taiwan fishing competition.

Zhang Yang looked at the number of applicants, and decisively asked Lao Zhao to find someone to get the number of applicants immediately.

This kind of competition at home should not be missed, and the reward for the champion of the Marukyu Cup is not low. The bonus is 1 yuan, which is already a very high figure in regional commercial fishing competitions.

The places are all in the hands of the organizers. The registration fee is 100 yuan, and the championship is [-]. The rate of return of [-] times will definitely not worry about no one signing up, so it needs to be done as soon as possible. If it is a little later, the places may be gone. I can be a spectator.

Lao Zhao knew a lot of friends in the circle, so he was sure that Zhang Yang wanted to go, so he quickly asked his friends to help him find three places.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lao Zhao finished his work and wandered into the store.

"Tired of playing in the black pit, do you want to compete in the Liyuan Business Competition?" Old Zhao asked with a smile.

Zhang Yang grinned: "I have an idea, the Marukus Cup is a regular business competition anyway, let's go and have fun, and take some footage of the competition to make a video!"

"Have you read the rules and regulations? In the project, one species of fish can be mixed with another, can you do it?" Lao Zhao specifically mentioned the competition's project and asked seriously.

The word "object fish" here is quite interesting, and it has little to do with the object. It refers to the designated fish species to be caught in the competition!Generally, unless otherwise specified, in freshwater table fishing competitions, the target fish refers to crucian carp!

Corresponding to the target fish, it is polyculture.

Polyculture, as the name suggests, means that different fish species are mixed together. All fish in the pond are considered effective fish species. Generally, the common crucian carp, carp, grass carp and herring are the main ones.

Lao Zhao specifically mentioned the competition items, the purpose is to ask Zhang Yang how much he understands. After all, no matter how good the black pit and wild fishing skills are, if you don't know the regular competition items, it is difficult to get good results.

Faced with the question, Zhang Yang nodded: "I know a little bit, but I have never participated in a formal Taiwan fishing competition!"

Old Zhao shook his head, and suggested: "It's not enough to just know the superficial facts! Otherwise, let's go to the field now! Take the equipment and try it out in advance!"

"Okay, know yourself and know your enemy and win every battle! Go and step on the spot!"

Zhang Yang originally had this idea, but he originally planned to go tomorrow. After all, the game is on the weekend, so there is still time. Since Lao Zhao is free today, it is ok to go early.

"Three places, how do you plan to arrange the other two? I haven't practiced the basic skills of the small crucian carp for a long time, and this kind of competition is a bit frustrating!" Old Zhao is also a bachelor. Still a little hesitant.

Zhang Yang: "The 100 yuan registration fee is just the registration fee, the most important thing is to participate! Is Brother Jun free? Let him join us, let's join the Audio-Technica!"

"Xiaojun has something to go to other places, and he hasn't come back yet! I just finished calling him! The weekend is probably enough!"

Zhang Yang suggested: "Then call Meng Fan? Or let Wang Yan do it! Results are secondary! Feel the atmosphere of the game!"

"The quota you want, you make your own decision, doesn't Wang Yan still want to shoot material for you?"

"Then Meng Fan, I'll call him next time, this guy is very good at fishing!"

"That's it!"

After a brief communication, Zhang Yang called Meng Fan and learned that there was a fishing competition reserved for him this weekend. Meng Fan immediately jumped up happily. Will go meet them.

After finalizing the competition, Zhang Yang and Lao Zhao immediately drove towards the Liyuan Fishing Ground.

There are still two days before the weekend competition, and there are not many people here at Liyuan today. There are six or seven cars parked sparsely near the parking lot, and seven or eight fishermen in twos and threes by the pit are practicing or trying fishing.

"A commercial competition with a prize money of [-] yuan shouldn't be so popular! Why are there so few people here to practice!"

Seeing the situation of the fishing ground, Old Zhao asked with some doubts while holding a cigarette in his mouth.

"Maybe we'll come in a group tomorrow! Let's leave them alone and go wander around the pit first to get an overview of the situation!"

"go!"

If you want to get results in the competition, in addition to good skills and good luck, the pre-preparation work is also very important.

In his previous life, Zhang Yang had accumulated a lot of experience in participating in competitions from all over the world.

There are also a lot of considerations for stepping on the spot in advance.

Strolling to the edge of the No. [-] pit, he put down the rod bag and fishing box, Zhang Yang did not rush to try fishing with bait, but wandered around the edge of the pit.

This is called Xunkeng. This is the first time I have come to Liyuan fishing ground in this life. I don’t have a clear understanding of the water quality and fish situation here, so I need to stroll around and observe.

Zhang Yang seems to be wandering around casually, but in fact most of his attention is on the details of the fishing ground.

For example, on the edge of the pit, how wide is the distance between the fishing position and the fishing position?Fat or thin?Do you have an oxygen machine?Under conventional cognition, what fishing position is the fish situation more dominant?

These details can be obtained through experienced patrolling ponds.And the seemingly inconspicuous details may affect the final result of the game.

Patiently strolling around the No. [-] and No. [-] pits, Zhang Yang is quite satisfied with the situation of the competition venue.

The distance between fishing positions is two and a half meters, which is relatively spacious. The water in the pond is light yellow-green, and the water transfer work is relatively good. If the fishing species are in good condition, the fish situation should not be too bad.

"What are you doing for a walk? It's all here, why don't you hurry up and try it out?" Lao Zhao has already pulled out the fishing rod, and continued to ask while adjusting the drift: "Each one is looking for a state of taste? Or should you arrange it together?"

"Let me do it!"

Zhang Yang responded, opened the fishing box, and began to adjust the bait according to his preliminary prediction.

Pit No. [-] is the target fish pit, and the main target fish is crucian carp of about one or two taels. It has entered June and the daytime temperature has begun to rise gradually, so the idea of ​​bait matching is mainly fishy and fragrant.

Commonly used commercial baits are seemingly randomly poured into the bait opening pot. After the preparation is even, Zhang Yang starts to open the bait on the spot with his hands to lift the water.

I didn't see what kind of measuring cup he used, and he stirred the water casually, and in a short time, he prepared the experimental bait for the target fish!

One type of bait was opened without stopping, and then the ratio of fishy and fragrant bait was adjusted, and the second type was developed.

Fishy or fragrant, fishing crucian carp this season is nothing more than these two main flavor types, and there must be a big difference in direction.

After the bait was opened, it was gathered into a ball to expel the air, and Zhang Yang kept a ball, and then began to work in a leisurely manner.

Compared with ordinary black pits and wild fishing, competitive fishing has similarities and differences.

Most of the fish in the competition ponds are old slippery fish that have been caught repeatedly. Compared with wild fishing black pits, fishing is much more difficult.

For example, Zhang Yang took a crucian carp weighing about 1.4g, adjusted it to three meshes, and started pulling bait from two meshes to try fishing.

Obviously very good small movements, but the pole is frequently empty, Zhang Yang tried to catch a few rods in a row, then pushed the float and continued to try,
The fishing eye was adjusted from two eyes to three eyes, and the empty gun rate was still quite high. It was not until the fishing eye was pushed to three and a half eyes that the hit rate gradually increased.

The difference is only half an eye, and in wild fishing and black pits, the impact may be minimal, but in the competitive practice pond where fishing is repeatedly released, even if a master like Zhang Yang cannot adjust to a suitable state, his hit rate will be significantly affected .

Finding the bait state and taste type that fish like to eat, and finding the floating fishing group that is suitable for the current fish situation to adjust fishing are the main efforts to come to the fishing ground for trial fishing in advance.

Through a series of explorations, Zhang Yang quickly figured out the general fish situation at the current location.

On the whole, the average size of the No. [-] crucian carp pit is about one to two half. According to Zhang Yang's classification of slippery fish, the fish in the pond are roughly classified as medium slippery fish.

If it is played well, it is not a big problem to catch forty or fifty tails per hour at the normal bottom fishing speed.

The mouth of the fish is tricky and there is an obvious phenomenon of rinsing bait. It is more appropriate to lower the eye and catch the higher eye. The 0.5# sub-line slightly blocks the mouth.

With a preliminary judgment, Zhang Yang changed his position and continued to try.
