Chapter 167: Off to Sea Fishing_5

"Here it comes!"

Seeing the movement of the fishing rod, Lin Yang smiled, then lifted it quickly. Instantly, the hook pierced the fish's mouth, and he began to pull it up.

As he continuously reeled in the line, before long, a fish with a body covered in sharp spines, a pair of big eyes, and a brown-green skin, about the size of a child's palm, was lifted out of the water.

At the sight of the fish, Lin Yang was taken aback, because this fish was exactly the stinky belly fish that Xiao Wu had mentioned to him yesterday.

The stinky belly fish, scientifically known as mudfish, is also called Blue Fish, Elephant fish, among other names, and is a species that specifically lives near reefs, coral groups, and docks.

They mainly feed on seaweed, which easily rots. Therefore, these fish usually die not long after being caught – usually in about half an hour. If you cut open their belly, you'll find it smells of rotten seaweed.
