There is a fishing story in Zhuangzi.


Ren Gongzi made a big fish hook and a black silk rope, he took fifty fat cows as bait, squatted on Huiji Mountain, threw the hook into the East China Sea, and fished there every day, waiting for a whole year without catching a fish. Later, a big fish caught the hook, pulled the huge hook and sank under the water, and quickly raised its head and tail and swayed its back, stirring up white waves like mountains, and the whole sea shook for it, and the sound it made seemed to come from ghosts and gods, and the terrifying sound was terrifying for thousands of miles. Ren Gongzi caught this fish, cut the big fish into small and then marinated it into dried fish, from the east of the river to the north of Cangwu, there is no one who does not eat this fish.
Later, the people who were not knowledgeable all marveled at it and told each other about it. They took their rods and lines and rushed to the side of the ditch to catch some small fish like catfish and crucian carp, because it would be difficult to catch big fish!
Today, some people take less than three months, invest less than 100u, watch the sea all day long, there are wind and waves fluctuating, chasing up and down, grabbing the sky and the earth, panic all day long, even if there are giant whales infested, it is not you can fish!
