It is understood that the time when netizens first found the suspected "giant fish" was August 29, because the observer and the "giant fish" appeared in the water distance, can not be recognized, everyone will gather together swimming fish mistakenly think of as a big fish. At the same time, such a school of fish is sometimes one or two, sometimes dozens of groups, so there are rumors of "many giant fish found".
On the afternoon of September 2, the reporter came to the netizens to break the news and found that there were suspected giant fish in the river section, and saw that there were five or six schools of fish in the water, sometimes static, sometimes swimming, not carefully distinguished, indeed like a black "giant fish". According to the drone shooting video provided by Jintang Town, it can be seen that the fish sometimes disperse, so the "giant fish" is actually formed by ordinary small fish swimming in groups, which has also been confirmed by local river rangers.

"At the beginning, everyone said it was a big fish, so we went down and squatted quietly by the river, saw two heavy piles, continued to observe and found that the overlapping 'big fish' was a group of small fish rolling, and it was determined that it was a school of fish, not a big fish." River ranger Song Guohai said.
At present, Jintang Town has arranged special river patrols to patrol the river all day to prevent people from fishing and salvage, and Song Guohai is one of them.
Since the emergence of fish, there have often been a large number of people on the roadside, and the terrain on both sides of this river basin is steep, so we also remind everyone to pay attention to their own safety, do not believe rumors, and abide by the fishing ban.
