We turned around because we only had 4 hours left on the Mississippi River. We lost most of are bait so we have to use this last piece of bait wisely so we cut it into three pieces and put one on the spinner. We lose it after a school of Brook Trout came by and caused a tide and we lost the first third of our last fish. We put the second piece on to get a fish on.
“Fish On number four coming right up,”I yell at Grandpa.
“Good job keep it coming,”he replied back
“Rip,” the line makes a sound of breaking line.
I said, “It broke but luckily I have another spinner,” I said grumpily. I put the new spinner on put the last piece of bait on and say, “Here I go, last piece,” I cast the line as it splashes into the water which the water exploded into the air which had somehow splashed me from 20 to 30 feet away. I can only hope to reach my goal of catching the biggest fish. They last recorded it had was a Flat Head Catfish at 60 pounds in 2012 which means it would have grown a lot by now probably 80-90 pounds in my opinion.
I listen as the line goes “ernn”
I pick my line and say “it's a big one and it's not no
