Fishing（钓鱼）

　　Everybody has some hobbies.

　　I like playing soccer watching TV listening to music…but fishing is my favorite relaxation.

　　I like fishing not because I like to eat fish but because I enjoy the wonderful time while I am fishing.

　　My father has a friend named Huang Cheng who lives in the countryside and owns a big fish pond. He is good at fish-farming. There are many kinds of fish in his fish pond. He can easily support his family with the income from the fish pond.

　　Last Sunday was a lovely sunny day. My father drove me to his friend’s place with two new fishing rods which he bought not long ago. The scene was really beautiful there in the countryside. Uncle Huang took us to a very good place for fishing and gave us some bait –earth worms. First I was a little afraid of the Earthworms. Uncle Huang taught me how to use them. Then we started to fish.

　　My father put some fish food into the water. Soon the part of the water attracted many fish to gather there. As soon as I put the fishhook into the water the fish nibbled at the bait. I thought that it rose to the bait. So I raised the fishing rod the fish swam away and my fishing line got entangled in some weeds. What a pity! I was too impatient. I should have waited for the fish to snap at the bait for some time and then I could catch it.

　　So from then on I became very careful and patient. At last I caught eight big fish and my father caught only three little fish. I was so happy with my success in fishing.Fishing can make me more and more patient and comfident! I love fishing!
