15 Min Writing 3
Fishing. I started fishing when I was 4. My first fish was a 10 pound bass. It scared the crap out of me. We took it home in a cooler and I took a picture with me holding it and it shook and fell out of my hands and hit the porch and I think it died cause it pissed and pooped on the porch!. We got it mounted and it is hangin where my tv used to. I usually fish for food no days. My favorite kind of fish to eat that is from fresh water would have to be cajun style catfish. The biggest catfish I have ever caught was a 30 pound blue cat. It looked like a big blue turd with whiskers! The lake I normally fish in is Norris Lake. It runs in Campbell, Anderson, and Union Counties. I would like to go deep sea fishing. My cousin went one time and caught an octopus! She brought it home and we ate it. It didnt taste to good! It was more like a rubbery feeling and tasted weird. She kept its beak though. I have went musky fishing and it was really hard! I did the figure 8 with my bait at the boat and this musky came out of nowhere and ate it I bought shat my pants cause all I seen was a mouth full of teeth. It was onlt 34 inches long. Surprisingly we didnt get that mounted. One time dad and me went fishing and we went back in a cove and there was a rattlesnake got in the boat and I didnt know it and it bit me on the calf and we had to leave early! That day of fishing offically sucked! Luckly we got to the hospital in time and they gave me antivenom. Dad killed the snake before we left though by chopping its head off, we kept the snake.

I like the way your voice is in this passage; it really seems to make this story flow and get to know who you are as a speaker. The rattle snake bite *shudders* is a very interesting, you should expand on that like how it felt, what your initial reaction was, etc... Though this is a great story, I'm not really sure how this ties into Pop culture?
ReplyDeleteI laughed so much when i read this. My dad is a hardcore fisherman. If we went to the beach, he was the crazy man standing next to the shore and casting a rod pullin out some sharks ten feet away.
ReplyDeletethat scared the crap out of me. :)
but very nice blog!
I thought that this was really funny. It reminded me of when I would go fishing with my dad when I was little. I never really liked it though, but this was in interesting blog.
