His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2330

"Elliot, how's this? Great atmosphere, right?" Avery went back to sit down next to Elliot and beamed at him.

"Sure. Looks great. It would be weird if I can't get any fish, though," Elliot said with a smile.

"Why wouldn't you? There are fishes everywhere! I can get down there myself and just grab blindly, and I will still end up with a few." Avery found it hard to believe that Elliot would fail despite having such wonderful gear. "Have you drawn them in? I watched videos of others fishing before. I think you need to draw them in first," she said, before grabbing a handful of bait and tossing them into the pond.

"All the fishes are gathered in this small pond. I don't really think we need to draw them in."

"Oh, right. I think the video I saw was someone fishing in the wild."

"Yeah. Avery, don't you want to stay inside the house? It's cold out here."

Elliot wasn't actually worried that she would be cold, as Avery had plenty of layers on; he simply felt nervous having her next to him while he fished.

"I'm not cold! Are you? The bodyguards are working on a temporary canopy." Avery shot him an innocent smile. "Go on! Don't mind me! I will take a video for you once the buoy moves!"

With a heavy heart, Elliot tossed the hook into the pond.

Shortly after, the buoy started to move.

Avery immediately turned on her phone and started recording.

Elliot pulled his rod up and two silver hooks of both the main and braid line came into sight. Neither had a fish attached to them and the worst thing was that the bait was gone.

Avery's hands on the phone started to shake slightly.

"Don't get disheartened, Elliot. That's normal," she consoled when she saw the depressed look on his face. "The videos online that show people getting a fish every time they lower the bait are usually edited that way."

Encouraged by Avery's words, Elliot learned from his mistakes and attached the bait to the hooks tighter than he did the last time. "Yeah. Maybe the bait wasn't really attached."
