Chapter 1 - Fishing

It was a lovely day out, the cool sea breeze, not a cloud in sight, showing the skies vibrant blue color. A perfect time… for fishing that is.

Kane Miller was out with his fishing rod, a bucket for fish, and a bucket of live bait. He was wearing a long sleeve shirt, wader pants, and his straw hat. He walked up to the dock near his home, passing by his neighbors, as an old lady, who was tending to her garden, greets him.

"Ah, out fishing again, young man?"

"She said with a warm smile on her face, as Kane nods his head and smiles brightly at her, tipping his hat to her*

"Sure am, Ma'am! If I'm lucky, I might bring home a big one today!"

The old lady simply laughs softly at his enthusiasm. Before taking a few pieces of apples from her garden and handing them to him.

"Ah, then take these. You look quite skinny, you need to eat more, you're still young after all."

She said with a stern tone, though it was just her caring nature, because Kane is anything but skinny. Kane just laughs as he scratches the back of his neck, before storing the apples in his backpack.

"Jee, you didn't have to, but thank you, Ma'am! I'll make sure to give you some fish later as thanks!"

And after that, Kane walks off with his rod in hand as he waves goodbye at her, the old lady waving back

"I wish you the best of look, young man"

After a few minutes of walking, he finally makes it to the docks. There was no one around, just a sound of the waves crashing, and the gentle breeze of the sea.

"Ah, the weather is so nice… Hehe, I think today is my lucky day!"

He said to himself, obviously feeling very enthusiastic, before he sat down at the edge of the dock, the cool water enveloping his leg. He grabs a herring from the bucket and quickly hooks it up to his rod, and maybe with this, he could catch a big one. He pulls the rod back and swiftly brings it forward, casting it over the water.

Now he just has to wait, so he sits there, waiting… So he takes out an apple given by the old lady from his backpack, he rubs it against his pants and takes a bite out of it. It was really sweet, so he took another bite, savoring every bit of the apple. 

But after taking a few more bites, he felt something tug on his fishing rod, something finally took the bait! He quickly puts down the apple and grabs the rod, pumps the rod back, and winds down on the reel. And he keeps doing this until he finally manages to reel in the fish, and once he reeled it in, the fish was a massive salmon, almost a meter long! 

"Aw yeah! I got a big one! Today definitely is my lucky day!"

Kane said excitedly, before quickly taking out his knife and making sure to kill the fish as quickly and painlessly as possible by stabbing it directly in the brain. And once he was done, he guts the fish and puts it in the bucket, and throws its guts back in the water. 

He does this for the rest of the day, he hooks live bait into his rod, casts it out into the water, wait, and if lucky, reel in a big fish. And by the end of the day, he managed to catch quite a lot, to the point that the bucket was full, and even had to bring another one because there were so many.
