But they soon realized they were wrong.
Just as Lin Yang had tossed the fish into the pond for less than five minutes, a dark shadow suddenly shot up from the bottom of the pond and bit into the bait on Lin Yang's lure rod.
Seeing that he had a bite, Lin Yang also reacted instantly with a pull, a lift and a jab, and in a flash, the fish was hooked.
"Got one!"
As he lifted the fishing rod high, he quickly hoisted a creature weighing almost four or five jin, with a mouth as big as a crocodile's, out of the water.
This thing was an Alligator Gar!
The Alligator Gar, in fact, is a general term for the Gar family in domestic terms, but actually, there are seven types of Alligator Gars in America. Apart from the species Lin Yang had just caught, the species currently spotted in China include the Longnose Gar, the Shortnose Gar, and the Broadnose Gar.
