Seeing this, some people might be curious: in a fishing competition at a reservoir with such pure, fresh fish, Zhang Yang should be best at offensive fishing methods like Yellow Face Scatter Shot, right? Why did he uncharacteristically switch to using commercial basic bait and pure Rice for Making Wine for baiting?
This highlights Zhang Yang's deep understanding of the reservoir's fish conditions.
It is now May Day, and as the water temperature gradually rises, small miscellaneous fish like Ruffe in the reservoir have already started to become active. These fish fry, only about two fingers in length, are difficult to catch even with a size 0.5 sleeve hook.
If you use purely aggressive fishing methods like Yellow Face or Scatter Shot, it won't take more than a few casts before these small, tricky fish are attracted, leading to bobbers dancing but no fish caught, which can be extremely frustrating.
