I tried to mimic what he told me, and once I tried to cast the rod out,…

It was a warm, muggy evening in November 2012. Dad had just returned home from a long day at work, and so he asked if anyone wanted to go with him on a quick paddle ride. As usual, I said yes. Living right next to the water makes it easy for us to just jump on the kayak and go, and we had a good chance of seeing lots of different organisms and critters out there. There were southern stingrays, nurse and bonnethead sharks, and barrel sponge, to name a few. But today, we were to find something…

According to Joe Namath “When you have confidence, you can have fun, when you have fun, you can do amazing things.” This quote by Joe Namath relates so much to me and what happened in Joel marsh. I woke up Saturday, September 24. I looked at the clock, 3 in the morning.

In "Fish Story" by Rick Bass, the element that I think that is an effective aspect of the story is the point of view element. The story is written from the first person point of view. The author, Rick Bass skillfully describes a fishing expedition in Texas in the 1960s when he was ten years old. Bass has a vivid imagination to describe the process of this story with such detail. One of his father's customers caught an eighty-six-pound catfish and since he was already in debt to Bass' father and…
