"Here, it's this one! The lead weight is heavier than it looks, but the casting is excellent, and its sensitivity is very high!"

Yue Feng, accustomed to the quality items from the System Mall, often disregarded ordinary goods. However, upon seeing this float, he immediately felt a strong connection to it.

A single feather retains the feather's texture, with a moderate shape and overall superior longevity. The float tail is extremely slender, even finer than the 0.4 float tail Yue Feng uses, and it's been tapered with fiberglass, promising extreme sensitivity under challenging conditions!

"This float is impressive, even more refined than the ones used on the field!

Xue Kai, find a new 0.2 premium fishing line and set up the float rig. We'll switch it out in the next round! This masterpiece of equipment can only show its worth in such extreme fishing conditions!"

Xue Kai scratched his head and responded, "Oh, I'll try!"

...

The competition continued, and after switching competitors for the second round, the anglers from the Hua Clan and Tianyuan finally began to score.

Zhao Lin replaced his setup with the finest gear he had and carefully adjusted the float lead weight. On his third cast, he caught another one.

The current tally stands at Yuefeng Fishing Tackle with five, Zhongsheng with two, and Hua Clan and Tianyuan with one each.

The four competitors combined haven't yet reached ten fish, showcasing the difficulties of the fishing conditions.

With Yue Feng's advice, second-in-command Zhao Zheng didn't wait like the others. Instead, he maintained a strategy of frequent casting, teasing the bait to entice a bite. Around ten minutes into the second round, he caught another fish.

This brought the total score to six, leading by a wide margin.

After numerous failed attempts, Xue Kai finally adjusted the new rig, holding the rod and bringing the line over.

Yue Feng glanced up with a smile and asked, "Got it set? How does it feel?"

"It's really peculiar. When I first trimmed the lead skin, I had it balanced at around water level and tweaked it just a bit, and immediately, it sank to the float body! All my efforts in vain!

The second time, I switched to a nail clipper to trim the lead skin and adjusted it to the fishing target. If I'd trimmed just a bit harder, it would've sunk to the float body again!"

Yue Feng laughed, "Try it out when you're up in the third round. It might just surprise us!"

Hearing this, Wang Xiaomin, who had been silent, frowned and said, "Brother Feng, using this float is fine, but be careful not to damage it!"

"Hmm? What's wrong? Feeling attached? Look at you, being so stingy!" Xue Kai glanced at his buddy, slightly displeased.

Yue Feng also looked at him with curiosity. Knowing Wang Xiaomin, he wouldn't say this without reason.

Wang Xiaomin scratched his head, "I did win this float from Leng Xiaojun, but I promised him that he could have a chance to win it back. If he challenges me for a fishing match and we damage the float, it'll be hard to justify!"

Yue Feng nodded, "Got it! No matter the history, a promise is a promise, and there's no issue there. If needed, we can set the float aside. We're in the lead anyway, and my float can manage for now, really don't need to push it!"

"Just use it normally; it'll be fine. The Peacock Feather with skin should be quite durable! Just be a bit careful." Wang Xiaomin added.

Yue Feng nodded, "Then let's give it a shot! The fishing conditions are tough, and it'll only get harder. Maybe we'll get a pleasant surprise! For the third round, it's your turn, brother Zheng. Your finesse should safeguard the float!"

Zhao Zheng eagerly rubbed his hands, "I've seen plenty of Peacock Feather Floats, but such a thick feather is something new to me. I'll test it in the next round to see if it's as magical as they say!"

Yue Feng reminded timely, "Even though it was calibrated next door, double-check the float when you're on the field. The pit sizes differ, and there's subtle variance in water tension and density, so don't slip up!"

"How could I forget common sense like that? I'll keep a handle on things!"

The second round swiftly reached its end. In the last five minutes, Wang Zhen thoroughly checked every potential catch site in his spot without capturing a fish, then Zhao Zheng took over with the newly adjusted float.

The third round kicked off!

Recalling Yue Feng's reminder from before, Zhao Zheng started with a recalibration of the float on his first cast.

To his surprise, Zhao Zheng broke out in a cold sweat.

The two-target settings from the neighboring pond, when transferred here with a similar depth, resulted in a negative target below the waterline. Carefully using a nail clipper, Zhao Zheng adjusted the lead skin to reach about two targets.

Thankfully, he wasn't over-confident, or Zhao Zheng's reputation would've been on the line.

With the new highly sensitive float, Zhao Zheng soon reaped rewards.

Near the shallow pit in the front left, Zhao Zheng executed a probing cast, continuing the previous enticing tactic. As soon as he raised the rod tip, the float crisply signaled a bite.

The tap was strong and clear, its movement steady and comfortable, outperforming the smaller float Yue Feng had used earlier.

"Damn, this subtle bite feels great! Let's go!" Zhao Zheng flicked his wrist, effortlessly catching the fish.

The scores on Yuefeng Club's board rose to seven.

After catching a perfect bite, Zhao Zheng quickly discovered another magical feature of this float.

Apart from its crisp casting, Zhao Zheng noticed that the visibility of the float indicated the presence of fish moving around the bait underwater.

By casting a smaller bait on double hooks near the bottom of a shallow pit, the float exhibited slight up-and-down movements, minor in amplitude but noticeable to sharp eyes.

Initially thinking it was a misperception, Zhao Zheng tested by casting into a no-bite spot, where the subtle float movements immediately ceased.

Armed with this discovery, Zhao Zheng leveraged the float's performance, diligently searching the front of his fishing spot.

The water under the shallow pits on the front left and back right had more fish, and the eight-marked spot in the front center also showed slight rippling. Zhao Zheng cautiously cast at it and, to his surprise, caught another crisp and clear fish.

Another fish added to the overall score, bringing it to eight.

With two more fish caught, Zhao Zheng fell in love with this extraordinary feather float. Unfortunately, the fish conditions remained bleak. Despite trying every technique, the fish still wouldn't bite.

In the last ten minutes of the third round, the entire pond fell silent with no catches, completely halting activity.

Yue Feng glanced at his phone, noting half a minute left before the switch, and said to Xue Kai, "Your work is too rough to mess with this float. Use the rod I had before!

There will likely be few bites, if any. My only requirement is to stay calm with no bites, and don't waste any subtle movements with a bite! Understood?"

"Understood, mission accepted!" Xue Kai didn't insist on using the float Wang Xiaomin won; he readily prepared to get on with it!
