Fishing

Fishing
My favorite sport and hobby is fishing. I love to hop in a boat, walk along the shore, wade through water, and walk across frozen lakes to catch a fish. I started fishing when I was four. I fished with my dad mostly in Fairfield Pond because it was close, but now that I’m older we fish all around.
In the summer I do bass fishing as a sport. We climb into someone’s boat who volunteered to take us out on a lake an we compete against each other. I have won 20$ and third place angler of the year.
My Pepe once took me to Biddeford Maine to visit his sister. We went fishing twice with some charters. We caught six Striped Bass each and a whole bunch of deep sea fish. I even caught a shark! The biggest fish I have ever caught were a 24 inch sucker, a 22 inch striped bass, and many pike and pickerel, plus two 19 inch freshwater bass.
As I said in my writing fishing is my favorite sport and hobby. I hope someday I can get a bass boat and learn to fly fishing.
