Chapter 472: Differences in Fishing Methods between China and Europe
As soon as Hong Tao's 200 catties of corn beans were thrown down, there was a large piece of yellow cancan at the bottom of the water, no matter how many small trash fish came to grab food, they were not afraid, because these small fish could not bite the corn beans. Even though these corn beans don't taste so fragrant and nutritious, the carp is not human, and it has no ability to think. When the carp is cruising underwater, it is basically what to eat, what to eat, and what to eat, and I don't want to save some stomach at all, and there are more delicious meatballs waiting for me in front of me.
So the Europeans still haven't fully figured out how to catch carp, or they understand it, but in order to protect the water quality, even if they know that more nest material can get more fish, they don't do it, and over time, no one thinks about it.
Another point is actually the main reason, compared with Chinese waters, the density of fish is not half a star, and Europeans do not eat freshwater fish, so it is not too difficult to fish, according to common sense, no one to study this technique. This is also the origin of the sentence that Hong Tao often says: find a random Chinese angler, put it in Europe, and adapt a little, you are a top master!
In addition to the difference in bait, there are also some differences between the European and Chinese bottom fishing methods, but they are not as large as the bait. Europeans were late in playing sunk fishing, but they played more delicately. They have developed a complete set of submerged fishing equipment from fishing rods, fishing lines, fishing reels, fishing hooks, fishing rigs to fishing rod holders, alarms, nest floats, bait feeders, fish guards, nets, hook pickers, fishing gloves and so on.
Their throwing rods are different from those of Japan and China, most of them are interpolated or single-section, and they do not pursue portability or lightness, but only pursue the main indicators of strength and toughness, and of course appropriate beauty is also required.
In addition to fishing rods, fishing reels, fishing lines, fish protection, netting and other equipment. The biggest difference between the European and Chinese fishing methods in terms of fishing gear is reflected in the fishing rig. The European rig is more complex and elaborate than the Chinese rig, and its hook drags behind the sinker, somewhat similar to the scorpion hook in the Chinese fishing method.
The connection of its sinker is a big highlight in its fishing rig, and it is forbidden to use sinkers in most of European waters, to be precise, it is forbidden to use sinkers made of metal lead, which is mainly for environmental considerations, after all, lead as a heavy metal, the pollution of the water body is still quite serious.
What we call a lead sinker is just a general name, in fact, many of the lead sinkers in China are not made of lead, and are replaced by iron. It can be replaced by other alloys. However, the starting point for the emergence of this kind of lead sinker in China, which is not made of lead, is not for environmental protection, but to save costs. Because the price of lead is much more expensive than iron and some alloys, I don't know if this is a mistake, or if the market adjustment mechanism is in effect.
In addition to environmental considerations. The sinker in the European fishing method is inserted with a plastic connector, which is different from the Chinese fishing method, where the sinker is tied directly to the main line or strand. This connection can also be adjusted to two states. One is a completely locked state. In this way, the lead sinker is very strong and attached to the fishing rig, and it is not easy to tear off. The other state is falsely attached to the fishing rig, if it encounters a strong pull, the lead sinker will break away from the fishing rig, the advantage of this is that it is not easy to let the rig hang on the debris on the bottom of the water, two important factors for the bottom of the rig. One is the hook and the other is the sinker.
In addition, the rod holder of the European fishing method is also very particular and special, and it does not use a separate rod holder like the Chinese fishing method. Instead, an aluminum alloy device similar to a drying rack was made, and then the fishing rods were arranged on the rack one by one, with a separate position for each fishing rod, and generally three to four fishing rods were a group.
The contact part between each rod and the rod holder is the alarm, the fishing line is placed on the roller of the alarm, and then hung on the fishing line with a metal weight hammer, so that no matter whether the fishing line is pulled outward or loosened inward, the alarm will be triggered, thus alerting the angler.
From these aspects, it can be seen that the European fishing method is more exquisite, more precise and more humanized in terms of equipment, and the Chinese fishing method is more simple, practical and low-cost, which is mainly related to the economic level between regions, and has little to do with the level of fishing.
But the Marx brothers obviously don't understand it this way, they can beat them neatly for the first time when Hong Tao from afar tries fishing on their territory, not only is they not annoyed and angry, but they are also very happy, and they are happy from the heart, the brothers are so wide-hearted!
"Dumplings, my brother and I are very honored to team up with you to compete, do you think we can win the championship?"
"If you can not call me by my nickname, you can have a better chance of winning the championship!"
"Pan said that this is your nickname, and the pronunciation is indeed smoother than your name, what can she call Lu we can't call? In inviting you to fish, we are all helping you, we should be your friends like her, and friends cannot be different! ”
"Hey......! If you don't have enough brains, marrying a beautiful daughter-in-law is a curse! When Hong Tao had objections to Marx's brother calling himself a nickname, Marx told him reasonably, Hong Tao was said that he had nothing to say, these two brothers have too high IQ and too low EQ, they should really be thrown to live in China for two years, reduce IQ, and then improve EQ.
No matter what it's called, anyway, the Marx brothers are completely relieved of Hong Tao and Wang Jian's fishing skills, and no longer mention the question of whether they can win the championship, but begin to think about how to win the championship.
In order to allow Hong Tao and Wang Jian to better adapt to the waters of the competition, the plan that was originally scheduled to start 3 days before the competition was also changed by the Marx brothers, and the family left Baisha Island 5 days in advance and embarked on a journey to France.
The venue for the tournament was located in Bisveller, France, a little north of Strasbourg, which is considered the northeast corner of the French map, across the Rhine River from Germany.
Listening to Marx's introduction, this area was a German territory before World War I, and then the war was defeated and returned to France, but it has been ruled by Germany for many years, and many living habits are basically the same as Germany, and the local area is mainly German, even if it speaks French, it is not the same accent as other places in France, with a strong German flavor, even the French do not understand it.
Hong Tao knows a little about the history between Germany and France, a pair of European neighbors who have not lived in peace since the day of their founding, and who have been fighting each other over who will dominate the continent. Whether it was the Franco-German War, World War I, or World War II, both of them were major participants and opponents, and they fought for hundreds of years without a single victory, and as a result, both sides were defeated, and no one became the boss of the European continent, and they got into trouble.
In fact, the French and Germans are still related from the origin, the main ethnic composition of Germany is Germanic, and the French race is mainly a mixture of Germanic and Celtic people. This is the same as the two brothers in the family, who fought for the family property, and were more ruthless than outsiders, and as a result, the British and Americans hid aside to watch the jokes. It seems that the fighting in the nest is not only good for Chinese, but also for Europeans.
Hong Tao does not plan to discuss the issue of World War I and World War II with Marx, this is a pain in the heart of this nation, and Hong Tao does not plan to study this, there is no need to dig deep into the dirty roots of people's hearts. Just like Marx went to Beijing to play with Hong Tao, if he dragged Hong Tao to discuss the Opium War and Japan's invasion of China every day, Hong Tao would definitely look forward to this 205 and get out of here, don't block yourself here every day!
The transportation from Hamburg to Bishvelère is very convenient, and there are the famous ICE trains in Germany and TVG in France to choose from, both of which are known as the three major high-speed railways in the world along with the Shinkansen in Japan, with speeds of more than 270 kilometers per hour, fast and safe.
