"First, make some wooden fishing traps and throw them into the river water along the way."
"Catch more fish species by dispersing in different watersheds."
"Second, we need to look for bait."
"This time, the bait is not counted or adaptable, but rather complex."
"Different types of fish need different types of bait to fish in order to be more targeted and get more fish."
"So, we need to collect different kinds of bait as much as possible to catch more varieties of fish from the water."
Hearing Su Bai’s plan, Zhao Xinqing thought for a while and said:
"Can you roughly describe what kind of bait you need?"
With the experience of Zhao Xinqing finding the giant Babu spider last time, Su Bai knew in his heart that although he was the king of wild fishing, he was still far from looking for bait in the jungle, a four-series doctor.
Therefore, Su Bai is still preparing to let Zhao Xinqing find the bait on his own.
He explained:
"The food properties of fish are generally four types."
“Filter-eating, herbivorous, carnivorous and omnivorous.”
"Filter-eating fish generally feed on zooplankton and plants in the water, swallow a lot of water in their mouths, and filter the food in it to drain the excess water."
"This kind of fish rarely swallows large-grained baits, so it is difficult to find particularly suitable baits in nature."
"But it's not that I can't catch it."
"The fat-headed fish we caught before was a filter-feeding fish."
"But after the size is larger, it is inevitable that there will be a chance to swallow other types of bait on the hook."
"Herbivorous fish feed on aquatic plants and algae. Generally speaking, starch-containing baits will be very attractive to this kind of fish."
"Carnivorous fish are generally larger and more ferocious, and have a wide range of predation, eating meat and insects."
"As for omnivorous fish, they rely on luck and are not particularly picky about the types of baits."
After Su Bai explained, he looked at Zhao Xinqing and smiled:
"That's about the principle."
"You will decide what to choose as bait."
"I believe your judgment in this regard will be more accurate than mine."
Zhao Xinqing thought carefully, and had a rough idea in her heart. She nodded and said:
"Okay, we go into the jungle and look for branches to make fishing traps while finding the bait."
Although the two used bamboo to make some fishing traps to catch loaches, the thing was not small in size and was very poor in general use, so they didn't carry it with them.
At this time, fishing traps are needed, so they can only be made temporarily.
Fortunately, the materials and production process are not complicated.
Long branches as thick as fingers can be used as materials as long as there is no hidden damage.
And this kind of thing is everywhere in the woods.
In order to reduce Zhao Xinqing's workload, Su Bai directly took out the previously recycled scattered fishing lines to tie up branches for Zhao Xinqing.
In less than an hour, Su Bai and Zhao Xinqing prepared five fishing devices with suction mouths.
These fishing devices, compared to those made by Su Bai, look much rougher.
Not only because Zhao Xinqing's craftsmanship is limited, but also because the branch materials found this time inevitably have uneven situations.
The fishing device made in the camp used bamboo, which was very straight and regular, without any concerns about this.
"Are five enough?" Zhao Xinqing asked.
Su Bai nodded:
"This thing is actually more and more, but we don't have enough time, just five are five."
Hearing Su Bai say this, Zhao Xinqing put five fishing devices in a fish skin bag, and then began to concentrate on finding possible baits in the jungle.
Soon, Zhao Xinqing, a PhD in Botany, made a discovery.
“Huh?”
"This fallen leaf..."
Zhao Xinqing bent down and picked up a fairly fresh fallen leaf from the ground.
Su Bai looked and found that what Zhao Xinqing was holding between her fingers was an oblong yellow leaf.
Su Bai couldn't tell the name at all and asked:
"What's wrong with this leaf?"
Zhao Xinqing glanced at her again, and her face gradually showed joy:
"If I read it right..."
"This is a leaf of wild wolfberry!"
Su Bai was slightly stunned:
"Wild wolfberry?"
Zhao Xinqing nodded and said:
"good."
"The difference between wild wolfberry and artificially cultivated wolfberry is not very big."
“It is nutritious and can be used as medicine.”
"And it is a plant of the Solanaceae family. The wolfberry is sweet and sour and rich in sugar."
"It can be used as bait to fish for herbivorous and omnivorous fish!"
Barrage:
【Good guy?】
[Dr. Zhao is really willing to put the bait!]
[When fishing with wolfberry, I am afraid that the fish that are all old cadres holding thermos cups?]
When Su Bai heard this, his mouth slightly opened and could not say a word for a long time.
Fish with wolfberry?
This is the first time I've heard of it...
but……
Su Bai pondered:
"As you said, wolfberry does seem to be used as bait."
Zhao Xinqing nodded and said:
"Yes, the common wolfberry in our shopping malls are all dried."
"After losing a lot of water, it seems cramped to use wolfberry to fish."
"But the fresh wolfberry fruit is a good fishing bait!"
Zhao Xinqing said, saying to Su Bai:
"We spread a little bit and looked for wolfberry."
"The wolfberry tree is generally low, with oblong leaves, and barbs and thorns are common on the branches."
"The fruits of wolfberry will be fine and dense vermilion fruits, like small peppers."
“It’s easy to identify.”
At this time, Zhao Xinqing was still carrying a basket on her back, and the cat and the eagle were still squatting in the bird's nest on her back, so Su Bai was not worried about her safety.
So he dispersed in different directions from Zhao Xinqing and went to find the traces of wolfberry.
Logically speaking, since wolfberry leaves appear on the ground, the real wolfberry plant will definitely not be too far away.
After searching for about thirty meters, Su Bai found a not-tall plant in the forest, with small lantern-like vermilion fruits dotted among the branches.
These fruits are a bit different from the wolfberry that Su Bai thinks can be used to soak in water.
But it is almost exactly the same as Zhao Xinqing described.
It should be the wild wolfberry that Zhao Xinqing is looking for!
Su Bai immediately said:
"Heart is clear!"
"I seem to have found it here!"
Zhao Xinqing's response came soon, and he moved closer to Su Bai's side.
When Zhao Xinqing came beside him, Su Bai pointed to the plant in front of him and asked:
"Is this the case?"
Zhao Xinqing nodded and praised:
"That's amazing."
"Finished so soon."
"Yes, this is wild wolfberry."
Zhao Xinqing walked to the wolfberry tree and was about to bend down to pick it.
From the corner of my eyes, I suddenly glanced at another bush of plants not far away.
“Huh?”
Zhao Xinqing exclaimed in surprise, and her attention was immediately attracted by the bushes of plants.
