    Chapter 471 Giant eel

    After a second or two, the force on the hook suddenly increased, and it was obvious that the eel was beginning to retreat.  Liu Junhao tightened his grip on the eel hook and thrust it inward, then grabbed the rolling ring and flipped it, and then pulled it outward.  A huge force came, unprecedentedly strong. He couldn't hold the hook with one hand and was almost taken down. Fortunately, he was holding the rope with the other hand, otherwise he would definitely fall into the water.

    "Hold on tight, hold on tight!" Seeing the water rolling in the depression, Liu Guangju became excited and shouted on the shore at the top of his lungs.

    Liu Junhao tightly grasped the eel hook with his right hand, but he did not dare to pull hard.  This force weighed hundreds of kilograms, and he was afraid that the hook would be straightened with all his strength.  At this moment, we are just maintaining a balance to prevent the eel from pulling the hook into the hole.

    It¡¯s just that the strength of this thing is really great. In a moment of inadvertence, the fishhook was brought in and the length of the chopsticks was long.  Before he could gain strength, the eel suddenly rushed towards the cave entrance again.

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

    "Slow down, slow down"

    "careful"

    There were exclamations on the shore

    Liu Junhao didn't bother to wipe the water off his body, and still held the rolling ring tightly with his hand, preventing the eel from bringing the hook into the hole.  The lower half of his body was already soaked, so he simply stopped holding on to the rope, holding on to the rolling ring with both hands, and pressed one foot firmly against the roots of the thorn tree on the shore.

    This thing is more difficult to deal with than the big blaze he caught the year before.  After maintaining the same posture for a long time, my hands gradually began to tremble. Under the sun's exposure, beads of sweat kept pouring out of my forehead, and it slipped into the corners of my eyes.  Liu Junhao wanted to wipe it out at this time, but he just couldn't do it.

    People on the shore couldn't help cheering, so he could only cheer himself up from the bottom of his heart and deliberately divert his attention.

    I don¡¯t know how long it took, but I suddenly felt that the heavy pulling force on my hand disappeared.

    Liu Junhao was worried, maybe the big eel had decoupled.

    Anyone who has fished eels knows that small eels are very easy to catch, and you can basically catch them accurately.  The big yellow eel is different. Sometimes you may not be able to catch this thing even with several earthworms.  The main reason is that during their long-term fishing career, they have learned to be smart and can unhook.

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

    ¡°Perhaps the eel was out of strength, so Liu Junhao tried to pull it out a little.  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. He could still pull it.

    When the eel head was pulled out, the crowd on the shore suddenly cheered, and even the fishing friends who persisted dropped their fishing rods and came over to watch the excitement.

    This is the first time I have seen such a big 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 grasped the fishing hook tightly with one hand, reached into the cave with the other hand, grabbed the eel's neck tightly, and pulled the eel out like a tug of war with both hands.

    To everyone¡¯s surprise, the preparations they made had no effect at all. The eel seemed to be completely dead and motionless, with no resistance at all.

    Liu Junhao did not dare to let down his guard at this moment, because many fish have the ability to pretend to be dead.  You relax a little and it immediately runs away alive and kicking.

    After more than half a minute, he took a breath and carefully pulled the eel out of the cave and placed 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 the shore about ten meters away from the water.

    That thing seemed to really die in the struggle, the eel's tail was hanging there.  Everyone is paying attention to its size at this moment. This eel is not too long, about the same size as an eel weighing one or two kilograms, only about one meter, but its body is very thick.  The head is triangular in shape, the body is dark brown, and the skin is wrinkled. It suddenly looks like a python.

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

    "Here, pick it up and see how heavy it is." Liu Guangju shouted.

    Liu Junhao is the only one in Liujiagou whose hands are like a scale, but others don¡¯t have this ability.

    Liu Junhao did not refuse, he directly picked up the net bag and then shouted, "Even the net bag is five pounds and seven taels"

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

    Everyone was amazed at the huge creature in front of them. Even Liu Guangju said that he had never seen such a big eel in his decades of life.  Usually eels can grow to over a pound, which is quite impressive. I remember that the largest eels caught in Liujiagou in the past were only two.It weighs 2 pounds and is nearly twice as small as this one.

    ¡°Such a big eel must be seven or eight years old,¡± a tourist asked curiously.

    ¡°Not only, at least ten years or more,¡± another person interrupted.

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

    "That area is a thorn nest. Who can go there if they have nothing to do? If Lao Chang hadn't accidentally discovered it this time, the eel would probably still be hiding in the cave," Liu Guangju explained.

    "Xiaohao, take out the eel hook quickly, don't really die." Liu Junqi shouted, 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 hook was more than ten centimeters deep into the eel's belly and could not be withdrawn 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, there was blood oozing from the eel's mouth.  Amid everyone's regretful expressions, this guy slowly started to move.

    At this time, Liu Guangju started to think twice again, "It should be that when we pulled each other, the sealing hook blocked the eel's valve, so the eel passed out due to lack of oxygen. Now he thinks about it."

    "Xiao Hao, don't eat this eel, just raise it for your family. If you take the eel seedlings and raise them, they will definitely grow in size." A tourist suggested.

    ¡°Khan, even if we raise it for a hundred years, there won¡¯t be any eel seedlings. Such a big eel can only be a male.¡± Liu Junhao once again popularized science for everyone.  Monopterus eels are quite unique. When they are young, they are female. After one reproduction, they undergo sex reversal and partially transform into males. Almost all eels weighing more than a kilogram are male.

    But he did have the intention to raise the eel, and he had previously planned to use stone locks to cultivate the eel to create news.  This makes it easier, just notify reporter Guo directly to take photos.

    There are witnesses at the time and place, which makes it more real.

    ¡°Liu Junhao, if you keep hooking the bait, you may still find a giant eel.¡± At this time, another tourist suggested.

    ¡°It shouldn¡¯t happen,¡± Er Mazi interrupted.  Although there may be many eels in an eel cave, large eels like this one usually live alone in a cave.  There are even no other eel caves near it. The main reason is that this thing consumes an amazing amount of food and has developed a territorial concept.

    Liu Junhao also thought it was unlikely, but he still put the hook in to try, just in case there were eels.

    ?????? It¡¯s not just in case, I tried sealing the hook for more than ten minutes but nothing happened.

    After satisfying everyone¡¯s interest in taking photos, Liu Junhao took the eel home, secretly added some spring water and kept it in a wooden basin.  He planned to wait until the internal injuries of the eel healed before putting it into the ditch in the backyard, but then he thought wrong.  This thing is astonishingly big, and its appetite is certainly not small. If it is kept in a ditch, it will definitely compete with the eels you raise for food.  If you don't have enough to eat, you might even have a small eel operated on, but that would be more than worth the gain.

    Besides, the burrows made by otters lead directly to the backyard. These guys are not fuel-efficient lamps. They might just throw the eels in with their front feet, and they will bite them to death on their back feet.

    Although this eel is relatively fierce, it is initially estimated that it is still no match for the otter.

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

    After much deliberation, I can¡¯t find a suitable place to put it, so I can only keep it in a wooden basin for the time being.

    The big eel fishing made a lot of noise this time. While cooking at noon, Zhang Qian kept taking pictures around the wooden basin.

    Fatty Wang, who is engaged in aquatic products, heard the news from somewhere and called to express his intention to buy the big eel.  However, he also knew that the possibility was unlikely, and the benefits would be greater if raised in Liujiagou.

    Just after I put down the bowl at noon, another tourist came over to see the giant eel.  These people went hiking in the morning and missed the fun.

    Because there were too many people visiting, Liu Junhao simply moved the wooden basin to the neem tree in the courtyard.  It is estimated that the eel's internal injuries were not serious. After being nourished in the spring water for several hours, it has regained its vitality. It jumped directly out of the wooden basin several times.

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

    "Liu Junhao, I heard that you caught a giant eel?" In the afternoon, Zhao Guangming also brought his wife over to see the giant eel.

    After seeing this guy, I felt regretful for a long time, saying that I originally planned to come over this morning to play, but something got delayed and I missed the opportunity.  If I were present at that time, I would never let him show his authority.

    Liu Junhao naturally ignored this man's bragging and led them to the river embankment to blow the wind.

    The doctor has advised that it is good for pregnant women during labor to exercise appropriately.  During this period, Liu Junhao always takes his wife for a walk outside when it's cool.

    The wild grass around the river embankment grows very lush, and a large colorful blanket is spread on the ground.The true features of the high and low valleys are all covered up.

    This ditch, together with the big river, has abundant water resources, and dense thorn seedlings, reed clusters and willow bushes grow along the ditch edge.  No crops can be grown beside the ditch, but it has become a natural paradise for foxes, rabbits, birds, insects and other small animals.

    Along the way, they disturbed many wild ducks that were hatching eggs in the thorn seedlings. When these guys saw humans, they immediately limped away and ran away. It was clear that they could catch up with them by running a few steps.

    But often after you chase it around and run twenty or thirty meters, the 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 with no results. Then he honestly watched Liu Junhao point out to him the place where the wild ducks built their nests.
