It seems easy, but there are many difficulties. 1. Equipment: Since you do reel fishing, the equipment is a lot and heavy. 2. Environment: Since you are fishing in a natural open field, there are many risk factors. Falling rocks, wild boars, poisonous snakes, wasps, civets, rapid rise in water level, lightning, etc. 3. Time zone: Eels are nocturnal, so they fish from early evening to the next morning. They wait or sleep while sitting on a chair with their shoes on. If you don't cast within 30 seconds of the bite, the eel will go into its hole or wrap itself around a rock or a sunken tree and you won't be able to pull it out. 4. Point: Eels live in piles of rocks, sunken trees, and mud, but come out to the water's edge at night to hunt for food. Even if it's the point where you caught an eel last time, it moves depending on the season, weather, water level, and water temperature, so it's not easy fishing. 5. Probability: You don't catch fish every time you go fishing, and the probability of catching even small fish is about 30%. 6. Attitude: First of all, you need to be courageous. You have to fish alone in a remote place, and even if you are with a group, you have to be far away from each other so you won't be disturbed, so you have to handle all the fear and loneliness yourself. There is a 20m high cliff about 5m in front of you, so you always have to be careful of the water. 7. Labor: It's hard work to enter the point and clean the bottom, and it's not easy to get the boat out of the car, assemble it, fold it up, and put it back on the car after fishing. Driving long distances is also burdensome when you are sleep deprived. 8. Emergency Preparation: Always prepare extra food, fuel, batteries, and clothes in case of an emergency. If you fall into the water, there will be no one there to save you, so you cannot drink alcohol or go into the water. 9. Vehicle: When the fishing season begins from late May to mid-November, a lot of luggage including boats are loaded into the car, making it difficult to unload and load the luggage, so it can only be used as a fishing-only vehicle. 10. Trash: When you live outdoors, you produce a lot of trash, but you put it in a trash bag immediately. The places I pass by are clean without a single piece of fishing line. You put the trash bag in the car and separate it at the designated place. We are not the owners of this nature. It belongs to the animals we live with and to future generations, so we borrow it for a while and must return it cleanly in its original condition. Eels are the top predators in freshwater. They are ferociously strong and have a tricky bite, making them difficult to deal with. They are a high-level fish that any angler would want to challenge.
