Last summer, My dad took my brother, who is one years older then I am, and myself out to a small lake near by my house. We were fishing from a boat in a lake.
Suddenly the float on my brother’s line began to jerk up and down indicating that a fish was taking the baited hook below.
My brother began to fight the fish that was on it. It took him about fifteen minutes to get it in, and when he did, he stood up in excitement, eagerly tugging his line. Immediately the boat began to rock unsteadily. As a result my brother fell backwards on his seat.
The next moment the unbalanced boat capsized and my father and i fell into the lake with a huge splash.
We picked ourselves up and stood in the waist-deep water. We were soaking wet. My hat was ruined and all i got was a tiny little fish.
