Throwing a lure into flowing water is completely different from doing so in still water, as the flow of the water moves the lure, so it requires certain control and judgment from the angler.
After a simple judgment to adapt, the blade had reached the bottom, and Yue Feng then began retrieving the line rhythmically, manipulating the lure to exhibit pausing and accelerating movements.
Unexpectedly to Yue Feng, this area of water seemed quite large, but the water level was shallow. From the time it took for the lure to reach the bottom, he estimated that the depth was barely over a meter—the water would only reach waist-high if one were to step on the riverbed, and that was near the center of the river!
After a simple cast yielding no strikes, Yue Feng slightly changed locations for his next cast, controlling the lure to maintain a depth of about ten to twenty centimeters from the bottom as he continued searching.
