The behavior of the fish had changed, and Yue Feng sensed it keenly. He quickly swapped his 4.5-meter rod for the 5.4-meter 4h Chengying that he pulled out from the rod box behind him.
The benefit of maintaining a feeding spot at the full 4.5-meter mark was now evident. Switching to the 5.4-meter rod, he aimed for about eight-tenths of the rod's length, and the drop point was just right—the distance from the furthest reach of the 4.5-meter rod was nearly perfect, seamlessly connecting with the feeding spot without any delay.
With the longer rod, Loose Powder's effect was significantly reduced, as most of the more active fish had been caught. Those remaining were mostly in a slightly weaker condition, in a sub-health state but still showing a desire to feed.
The fishing strategy needed for these fish was different from that for purely active fish.
