Shocked 600,000 for a fish? The shady gambling behind high priced fishing

Mondo Gastronomy Updated on 2024-02-01

On ordinary days, a fishing ground in Huangpi District, Wuhan City, made waves. This extraordinary fishing ground not only charges as much as 2,480 yuan, but also is limited to 5 hours of fishing, which is an abnormal business practice that has aroused doubts. However, it is surprising that, despite the high price, there are still quite a few people who come to fish in an endless stream, as if attracted by a hidden gambling activity.

Soon after, the Huangpi District Branch of the Wuhan Municipal Public Security Bureau decided to uncover the secret. They dispatched more than 110 police officers and formed 10 arrest teams to launch a large-scale operation. ** Successfully arrested 86 gambling-related personnel at the scene, and seized more than 10 yuan of gambling-related cash, lottery machines, walkie-talkies, ledgers and other related evidence. Shockingly, they also arrested the main suspect, Zheng and others.

According to Zheng's confession, in order to attract more people to participate, they launched the so-called "herring gift package" at the fishing grounds. They claimed to have stocked the pond with about 15,000 herrings, more than 700 of which had plastic signs tied to their fins, red and yellow, with the number of portions marked on the plates corresponding to the amount. When the gambling game begins, the fishing ground organizes gamblers to draw lots, and the fishing position can not be changed in the future, and the fishing time limit is 5 hours, and the fish caught cannot be taken out of the fishing ground, and can only be exchanged for money in accordance with the rules of the casino.

However, behind this fishing feast, there are huge risks and pitfalls lurking. Anglers who pay a ticket of 2,480 yuan must catch at least 9 ordinary fish to return to their capital. This seemingly tempting fishing activity is actually an elaborate trap.

On the one hand, the attractive conditions and bait offered by the fishing grounds attract many people to participate. They are attracted to the so-called "herring packs" and think that they will be able to catch a lot of fish easily and thus reap a good return. However, in reality it is just a trap designed to attract people to gambling activities.

On the other hand, the secrecy and high rewards of this gambling activity also attract many people to participate. The fishing ground appears to be a place of recreation, but in fact it has become a hidden gambling place. Here, people need to take huge risks to participate in gambling activities, and often end up not realizing the expected benefits.

For the participants in this gambling activity, they need to be aware of the dangers of gambling. Gambling not only affects an individual's life and family, but it can also lead to serious social problems. We should establish correct values and consumption concepts, stay away from bad behaviors such as gambling, and cherish our lives and health.

For the relevant departments, the supervision and crackdown on similar gambling activities should be strengthened. Diaoyu Grounds should not become places for gambling activities, and relevant departments should strengthen the supervision and management of Diaoyu Grounds to prevent the occurrence of similar gambling activities. At the same time, publicity and education should be strengthened to raise the public's awareness and vigilance of the dangers of gambling.

The shady gambling behind this ** fishing is thought-provoking. We should establish correct values and consumption concepts, and stay away from bad behaviors such as gambling. At the same time, the relevant departments should also strengthen the supervision and crackdown on similar gambling activities to maintain social harmony and stability.
