Synopsis

[Fishing + reservoir + System + rampaging monsters + a record of humans losing their minds]

On the first day Shen Lang takes over his hometown's reservoir, there are only a few listless crucian carp flopping around in his keepnet.

Three days later, the entire fishing world is in an uproar:

The fish in this reservoir only start going crazy once they're hooked!

A beauty floors the accelerator and uses an excavator bucket as a keepnet, hauling out a carp with scales as big as manhole covers;

A rich man cruises around in a yacht, chumming the water with banknotes and swearing he'll catch a "living torpedo capable of flipping a patrol boat";

Anglers cast their lines and curse: "Three hundred pounds? That's just an appetizer! I want to take on the old monster that can make a fishing rod spark like a firework!"

Keepnets are welded from sheet metal, fishing lines are replaced with steel cables, and drones capture even more outrageous scenes:

A beginner gets dragged across the water, skimming over the waves and hollering, "Did this thing swallow fertilizer or what?"

A veteran welds his fishing rod to a dump truck. Amid the stink of scorched tires, the livestream comments flood in: "Let go! This fish is about to leap through the Dragon Gate!!"

The fisheries bureau staff gripe as they brandish their testing equipment: "You must have put some kind of black technology in this reservoir!"

Shen Lang squats in the monitoring room, munching spicy strips, and glances at a prompt only he can see:

The shadow beneath the surface is silently growing, while the anglers stomp through the mud and roar:

"Open the sluice! I'm catching something that'll trend today!"

After all, when a fin cuts through the morning mist, who cares about science?

Will the next cast fill the keepnet, or drive you to exhaustion?

It's cheap and easy to catch, so simple it's like giving money away to everyone. I don't really like watching this kind of thing.

It's pretty good, but the fishing price is indeed a bit low. Also, my personal suggestion is that you absolutely shouldn't add any elements like cultivation, fantasy, or spiritual energy revival later on; adding them would ruin the fun.

It's a very good read, with a fresh theme. I don't like fishing, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying this novel; it's quite interesting and even makes me laugh. You can also see AI-generated images from other readers, which makes it even more fun.

I was drawn here by Douyin (TikTok), and the writing is quite amusing. When the Li Peiguang segment came out, I burst out laughing; the author really knows how to use internet memes.

It's a great book. One of my favorites. The whole thing is fast-paced and concise, focusing solely on the desire for the catch. I could understand if it were a cultivation novel, given the rapid increase in fish catch weight in the early stages; it would be unsustainable later on. But could you perhaps provide some background information on the habits of specific fish species? After all, I've actually caught tilapia weighing over a pound before.

Interesting. The subject matter is quite good. Overall, the beginning is a bit toxic, but it gets quite interesting once you persevere. It's a great read for leisure time. By chapter 200, the "fish" (a metaphor for the author's interest) has already accumulated a great deal. If you enjoy stories about fishing with skillful techniques, you should check this out.
