Chapter 477 Giant Field Eel
After a second or two, the force on the hook suddenly increased, and it was obvious that the eel was about to retreat.Liu Junhao clenched the eel hook and thrust it inward suddenly, then grabbed the rolling ring and turned it over, and then pulled it outward.There was a huge force, unprecedentedly strong, and he couldn't hold the hook with one hand at all, and was almost taken down. Fortunately, the other hand was holding the rope, otherwise he would definitely fall into the water.

"Hold tight, keep it steady!!" Seeing the water splashing in the hollow, Liu Guangju became excited and yelled on the bank at the top of his voice.

Liu Junhao firmly grasped the eel hook with his right hand, but he didn't dare to pull it hard.This force weighed over a hundred catties, and he was afraid that the hook would be straightened if he tried hard.At this moment, it is just maintaining a balance, keeping the eel from pulling the hook into the hole.

It's just that the strength of this thing is really great. If you don't pay attention, the fishhook is brought in and the chopsticks grow long.Before he could gain strength, the eel suddenly rushed towards the entrance of the cave again.

"Plop" the tight rope on Liu Junhao's left hand suddenly lost strength, and he fell into the puddle under the action of inertia.

"Slow down, slow down..."

"Be careful!!"

There was an exclamation on the shore...

Liu Junhao didn't care about wiping the water on his body, but still held the rolling ring tightly with his hands, preventing the eel from bringing the hook into the hole.His lower body was already soaked, so he simply stopped grabbing the rope, and held the rolling ring with both hands, with one foot firmly pressed against the root of the old thorn tree on the bank.

This thing is more difficult to handle than the big fire head he caught the year before last.After maintaining a posture for a long time, his hands gradually began to tremble. Under the sun's exposure, beads of sweat kept coming out from his forehead, slipping into the corners of his eyes and burning hot.Liu Junhao really wanted to wipe it at this time, but he just couldn't do it.

The people on the shore kept cheering, and he could only cheer himself up from the bottom of his heart, deliberately diverting his attention.

I don't know how long it took, and suddenly I felt that the heavy pulling force in my hand disappeared.

Liu Junhao was anxious, maybe the big rice field eel would be unhooked.

Anyone who has fished ricefield eels knows that small ricefield eels are very easy to catch, and basically one catch is accurate.The big rice field eel is different, sometimes it may not be possible to catch this thing with several earthworms.The main reason is that during their long-term fishing career, they learn to be smart early and will get off the hook.

He quickly pulled the sealing hook with both hands, feeling that there was still weight on it, and the eel should not have escaped.

It may be that the eel has no strength, so Liu Junhao tried to pull it out a little bit.Although the hook was heavy, there was no resistance from the eel.He let go of one hand and pulled the sealing hook outward with one hand, but it was still possible to pull it.

When the eel head was pulled out, the crowd on the shore immediately cheered, and even those persistent fishermen dropped their fishing rods one after another and came to watch the excitement.

This is the first time I have seen such a large eel head, which is as big as the mouth of a bowl.

Before he could speak, Liu Guangju on the shore had already placed a large net bag under the hole to prevent the thing from suddenly decoupling and jumping into the water.Liu Junhao held the hook tightly with one hand, reached into the cave with the other hand, clasped the eel's neck firmly, and pulled the eel out with both hands like a tug-of-war.

To everyone's surprise, the preparations they made didn't work at all. The eel seemed to be completely dead, motionless, and had no resistance at all.

Liu Junhao dare not relax his vigilance at this moment, because many fish have the ability to play dead.You relax a little, and it immediately runs away alive and kicking.

After more than half a minute, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then carefully pulled the eel out of the cave and put it in the net bag.

Several people on the shore grabbed the bamboo pole with all their strength and quickly moved the net bag to a place more than ten meters away from the water on the shore.

The thing seemed to be dying in the struggle, and the eel's tail was hanging there.Everyone is paying attention to its size at the moment. This rice field eel is not considered long, about the same size as a rice field eel weighing one or two catties, only about one meter in size, but its body is very thick.The head is triangular, the body is dark brown, the skin is wrinkled, and it suddenly looks like a boa constrictor.

When Liu Junhao dragged his wet clothes ashore, everyone hurriedly opened a gap.

"Come on, take it and see how heavy it is." Liu Guangju called out.

In Liujiagou, Liu Junhao's hands are like scales, and other people don't have this ability.

Liu Junhao didn't refuse, he picked up the net bag directly, and then shouted, "Even the net bag is five catties and seven taels..."

This number once again caused everyone to exclaim in surprise. The net bag weighs at most half a catty, which means that the eel weighs more than five catties. It is really a giant rice field eel!

Everyone was amazed at the huge monster in front of them. Even Liu Guangju said that he had never seen such a big eel in his life for decades.Usually, the eels that grow to weigh one catty are already very impressive. I remember that the largest eels caught in Liujiagou in the past only weighed two or three catties, which is nearly twice as small as this.

"Such a large eel must have been around seven or eight years ago," a tourist asked curiously.

"Not only, at least ten years or more," another person interjected.

"How come no one has discovered such a big eel before?" At this time, someone asked a question.

"That area is a thorn nest, who is free to go there. If Lao Chang hadn't discovered it by accident this time, it is estimated that the eel is still hidden in the hole," Liu Guangju explained.

"Xiaohao, quickly take out the eel hook, don't really die!" Liu Junqi called out, and everyone realized that they had forgotten to take out the sealing hook.

Liu Junhao hurriedly withdrew the hook, but he didn't know that the sealing hook was more than ten centimeters deep into the eel's belly, and it couldn't be pulled out for a while.When the hook was removed, the eel remained motionless, as if it was really dead.

When he took out the hook with great effort, the eel's mouth was oozing with blood.Amid the regretful expressions of everyone, this guy moved slowly.

At this time, Liu Guangju began to act with hindsight again, "It should be that when we were pulling each other just now, the sealing hook blocked the gas valve of the eel, so the eel passed out due to lack of oxygen, now reflect on it."

"Xiaohao, don't eat this eel, it's better to keep it in your home. After raising the eel seedlings, it will definitely grow bigger." A tourist suggested.

"Khan, even if you raise it for 100 years, there will be no eel seedlings. Such a big eel can only be male." Liu Junhao once again popularized science for everyone.Rice field eels are quite unique. They were females when they were young, but they will undergo sex reversal after one reproduction, and some of them will turn into males. Almost all rice field eels that weigh more than a catty are males.

However, he did have the intention of raising the eel, and had planned to use stone locks to breed large eels to make news.It's easier now, just notify reporter Guo to take pictures.

There are witnesses in time and place, which is more real.

"Liu Junhao, take a look again, maybe there is a big rice field eel," another tourist suggested at this time.

"Probably not," Er Mazi interjected.Although there may be many eels in one eel cave, large eels like this usually live in one cave alone.There are no other eel holes near it, mainly because the food consumed by this thing is astonishing, and it already has a sense of territory.

Liu Junhao also felt that it was unlikely, but he still put the hook in and tried it, in case there were eels.

Nothing happened, even after trying to seal the hook for more than ten minutes, there was no movement.

After satisfying everyone's desire to take pictures, Liu Junhao took the eel home and secretly added some spring water to raise it in a wooden basin.He planned to wait for the wounds in the eel's body to heal before putting it in the ditch in the backyard, but then he thought it was wrong.This thing is amazing in size, and its food intake will naturally not be small. If it is kept in the ditch, it will definitely compete with the eels I raise.If you don't have enough to eat, you might even take a small rice field eel for surgery, but the gain outweighs the loss.

Besides, the burrows made by otters lead directly to the backyard. These guys are not fuel-efficient lamps. They might be killed by the back feet as soon as I threw the eels in.

Although this eel is relatively fierce, it is still not an opponent of otters according to preliminary estimates.

Besides, there are pig badgers, which also eat eels.

After much deliberation, there is no proper place to put it, so I can only keep it in a wooden basin for the time being.

There was a lot of noise when fishing for large rice field eels this time. When cooking at noon, Zhang Qian kept taking pictures around the tub.

Fatty Wang, who is engaged in aquatic products, heard the news from somewhere, and called to reveal his idea of ​​buying the big rice field eel.However, he also knew that the possibility was not high, and that the benefit of raising them in Liujiagou would be greater.

As soon as the bowl was put down at noon, another tourist came to see the eel.These people went to climb the mountain in the morning and didn't catch up with the excitement.

Due to too many visitors, Liu Junhao simply moved the wooden basin under the neem tree in the courtyard.It is estimated that the internal injury of the big rice field eel is not serious. After being nourished in the spring water for several hours, it has regained its vitality, and several times it jumped directly out of the wooden basin.

Liu Junhao had no choice but to pour it into a large water tank.

"Liu Junhao, I heard that you caught a giant rice field eel?" At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Guangming also came to see the big rice field eel with his wife on his back.

After seeing it, this guy regretted for a long time, saying that he planned to come over to play this morning, but something was delayed, so that he missed the opportunity.If he was present at that time, he would never let him show his prestige.

Liu Junhao naturally ignored this person's bragging, but led them to blow on the river bank.

The doctor told me that it is good for pregnant women in labor to exercise properly.During this period of time, Liu Junhao always took his wife for a walk outside when it was cool.

The weeds around the embankment grew luxuriantly, spreading a large colorful blanket on the ground, covering up the true face of the high and dilapidated river ditches.

This ditch, together with the big river, has abundant water sources, and there are dense thorns, reed clusters, and willow bushes growing along the ditch.The ditch can't grow crops, but it has become a natural paradise for foxes, rabbits, birds, insects and other small animals.

Along the way, they startled a lot of wild ducks that were hatching eggs in the stinging seedlings. When these guys saw humans, they immediately limped away and ran away. It was obvious that they could catch up with just a few steps.

But often after you drive it around for 30 to [-] meters, this thing will suddenly fly up and leave you there alone.

Zhao Guangming didn't believe in evil at first, and even chased him several times to no avail. Then he honestly watched Liu Junhao point out the places where the wild ducks built their nests.
