Fishing is the activity of trying to catch
fish. Techniques for catching fish include hand gathering, spearing, netting,
angling and trapping. This story is about one fisherman who caught a monster of
a fish and won’t have to worry about supper for a while!
Now
here in the UK, when we go fishing we usually end up catching small-medium
sized fishes. It wasn’t long ago that a person called Kevin Gardner from
Norfolk went out for a normal fishing trip in the Atlantic, however this trip
was far from normal…Kevin ended up catching a fish that has been described as a
‘monster fish’ and is the 4th largest fish to be ever caught on a
fishing rod! Amazing!
Kevin spent 3 long and tiring hours trying
to reel in the monster fish, as a result of this Kevin experienced things like
painful back ache from constantly leaning over and he had blisters on his hands
from gripping and reeling in the fish . So once he eventually managed to get
hold of the fish, you can imagine he was pretty relieved!
It was a huge shock for Kevin when he first
got a glimpse of the fish he had caught in the cold Atlantic sea and when he
pulled the fish up to the boat he knew that what he had caught was a Marlin.
But not any ordinary Marlin… A Marlin that was nearly 6 METRES LONG! That’s
huge!
A great success story for Kevin Gardner. It’s
not every day a gigantic fish ends up on the end of your fishing line!
