Hunan is located in the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau to the Jiangnan hills and Nanling Mountains to the Jianghan Plain transition zone, the territory of the river network is dense, in addition to a few belonging to the Pearl River system and the Ganjiang River system, mainly for the Xiangjiang, Zijiang, Yuanjiang, Lishui Four Waters and their tributaries, along the terrain from south to north into Dongting Lake, Yangtze River, forming a relatively complete Dongting Lake water system. Rich freshwater resources and suitable climatic conditions, this makes Hunan have very good fish resources.
Recently, Mr. Wang (pseudonym), an angler from Changde, Hunan Province, was fishing in a local toll reservoir when he accidentally caught a fat "Phnom Penh River Turtle"...
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="6" > catch "Phnom Penh turtles" in the reservoir</h1>
As a prefecture-level city in Hunan, Changde sits on the two major river systems of Lishui and Yuanshui, and is a famous "hometown of fish and rice" in Jiangnan, with more developed local fishery resources and prevailing fishing, and large fish are often caught ashore.
Mr. Wang (pseudonym), an angler from Changde, said that he had not been fishing for a long time due to his work, and this time he took advantage of the afternoon time to take fishing gear to a reservoir near his home to fish.
This reservoir with a charge of 50 yuan has been built for nearly 40 years, in addition to the silver carp can not be fished and taken away, other fish as long as they are caught can be taken away directly, the overall fish situation is not bad, so there are more people fishing here.
"Because I only went in the afternoon, the good fishing positions are all fishing, so I first went to inquire about the fishing situation, the morning fish is not bad, the fish mouth performance at noon is not ideal, but they all come, I found a place that looks OK and began to prepare." Mr. Wang (pseudonym), an angler, said lightly.
"As a result, from 1 o'clock in the afternoon to 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the first bite finally came, as soon as it came up, it was a big black drift, I thought it was pulled by a white fish, who knew that a rod could not be pulled, at first I thought it was a branch hanging to the bottom of the water, but I was not in a hurry to loosen the pole, after a few seconds of stalemate, there was suddenly a sense of loosening under the water, and then a huge force came."
Mr. Wang, an angler, said that the sudden burst of power under the water made him happy, but years of fishing experience told him not to be in a hurry, slowly guiding the fish in the water to swim and consume physical strength, until the moment out of the water, he found that it was a river turtle, not an imaginary big fish.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="29" > was watched because it was too big, and the village elderly advised him to let go</h1>
After catching this fat river turtle, Mr. Wang, the angler, continued to crouch until about 5 p.m., and as a result, only a few white stripes and a few small crucian carp were caught, although the catch was not much, but this kind of turtle was a rare commodity.
As a result, when mr. Wang, an angler, brought home this river turtle, he met several old people walking outside, and then the fact that he caught a large river turtle also spread rapidly in the village, and many people in the village heard the news to see the liveliness and wanted to see this big river turtle caught from the reservoir.
I saw that the river turtle caught by Mr. Wang was fat, with a muddy yellow back and some spots, and a circle of "golden edge" on the edge of the turtle shell, as if it was inlaid. After measurement, it was found that the river turtle was more than 40 centimeters long, and a plastic bucket was just enough to hold it. A large river turtle like this weighs at least twenty or thirty pounds, and I don't know how many years it took to grow so big.
Like this river turtle is actually very difficult to see, so there are many people who come to watch, everyone also talks about this, many people praise Mr. Wang's good luck, but there are also several elderly people who hold different opinions, only to see them say: "This river turtle grows so big, it is estimated that it is about to become sperm, can't eat, can't eat, or let it go." ”
For the advice of the old man in the village, Mr. Wang, the fisherman, smiled and said that he would consider it, because he was also a little confused now, it was a pity that such a large river turtle was eaten, it should be worth a lot of money to sell it, and it felt a pity to let it go, and it was a pity to let it go for a while, so he was ready to put it into his own small fish pond first, and then make plans later.
Dear friends, how do you think it is most appropriate to deal with this big river turtle caught by the angler Mr. Wang?
