Going fishing

On Sunday morning me and Uncle Andy and Taria and Treah and Aunty Roxy went out fishing. We went in Opononi on the wharf. Treah caught the first fish, then Taria, then me. First you cast the fishing rod and when the fish are grabbing the rod and trying to escape you yank it up so the hook can go right through. Then you try and reel it up a little bit just in case the fish is on there. I caught 5 fish and 9 hooks that got loose. My Uncle said, “Wow that is lots of hooks you got V.J.” I think we got over 15 fish. My Uncle caught nothing because he was too busy fixing the fishing rods. But sometimes he was helping us when the fish were too big. I think I caught a very strong stingray or a snag. We were using squid and dropping the line down all the way to the bottom and then it was better because you got more fish. The squid really did the trick. It must be yummy for the fish. My Uncle was saying, “Wow squidward is yummy.” My rod and Treah’s rod were bending so hard that it looked like the rods were going to snap. When we ran out of squid we thought we had to go but we forgot  about the bait so Uncle Andy pulled out the bait and we were so surprised and said, “Wow.” “Yes yes yes!” We were so happy that we could keep on fishing.

We only had 4 more pieces of bait left that lasted long enough. My Uncle said “1 more fish and then we will go” So the last person who got a fish was Taria. She shouted, “Yes, Yes, I got one.”

Then we went home and had a good kai.
