Excellent fishing story Boot of the day by Iza Deleanu ~~~FISHING~~~TRUE STORY writing prompt entry

When I was in my first year of University, my sister and brother-in-law decided to take me fishing. Close to their house, there where the Danube River creates a small Delta, was a nice spot for fishing. I love swimming and I thought is going to be fun. What they had not told me was that we will not use a rod for fishing, but our bare hands. My brother-in-law brought some friends and we split in two teams. My sister was in charge of the cooking section and I landed in the bare hands fishing team. Our task was to dive in the river and take out the lobsters from their hiding holes from the riverbank. The idea was to put your hand in front of the hole and let them catch you. My brother in-law was an expert in that area. I tried and almost drowned when I started to scream under water. The lobster bit my hand, and I lost my interest for this sport. I run out of the water screaming and telling my sister that I want to be in the fishing team, because they have proper tools. When I went to their side of the river: surprise, surprise: they were using improvised fishing-rods and flies for bait. I tried to fish for half an hour and I got bored. You're supposed to stay quiet and watch the hook like a lunatic. I left my fishing line aside and start swimming in circles scaring the fishes away. As I was swimming, I noticed that my fishing pole started to move. Excited, I run out of the water and pull the line as fast as I could. When I took it out, I got the biggest... boot that I have seen in my entire life. My sister without telling me took a picture of my catch and posted on the Facebook mocking me with the title Catch of the Day. Her comment was, the Biggest Boot from the Danube River that demonstrates that Yeti was here.   Writing Prompt ~~FISHING***TRUE STORY*** ~~~PROSE ONLY~~No poetry~~ *PLEASE/FOLLOW ALL RULES* 1.  Name of Author will be displayed 2.
