NORTHERNETA-Personal Narrative Essay

Sports have always been a topic for debate, whether it is about teams or what is considered a sport. But what really defines a sport? At the moment we do not have a distinct way to determine if fishing could truly be considered a sport or not, but I would like to state my opinions on the matter. I think that the first criteria for an activity to be considered a legitimate sport is that it has to have a clear scoring system that is easy to understand. Games such as soccer or baseball would fall into this category. The reason I chose this as one of the criteria would be because those who watch sports do not want to have to figure out what the score is while they are watching the game.

According to Larsen Larry, fishermen need to “[take] note of a wide range of variables such as weather conditions, cover, structure, predominant forage, water levels and the time of year.” This quote shows all the things elements fisherman need to know before they fish for bass.

I have been fishing my whole life, especially bass fish. I normally try to catch largemouth bass, which are very common where I am from. I was on my high school’s bass fishing team and we actually did pretty well for the most part, especially coming from such a small school. Largemouth bass are our prime target during these fishing tournaments. A largemouth bass is a white/green fish usually ranging from 1 pound to 6, they can also get up to 10 pounds as well.

Fishing is an activity I have enjoyed doing ever since I was a little kid. In fact, one of my first fishing voyages was with my grandpa when I was about eight years old. He was an avid fisherman who went fishing almost every day and knew everything there was to know about fishing. Grandpa got me hooked on fishing. After Grandpa died, my dad picked up where Grandpa left off. We had a pontoon, and Dad took my brothers and me fishing whenever we had the chance. To this day, I still love fishing just as much as I had on my first fishing trip with my grandpa. Many people enjoy hobbies that are relaxing and peaceful, and others prefer exhilarating activities that never have a dull moment. I enjoy fishing because it has some of both.

Beep, Beep, I reached over and hit my alarm clock until it shut off. It was only 6 o’clock in the morning and I was already getting up. I was going fishing with my Dad, Pepe and one of his friends, Harold. We were going to Milford lake which is about 45 minutes away. My dad told me that they never have any luck at all when they go fishing, and something bad always happens, and we were wishing that nothing would happen this time either.

A door, set into the side of the building offered a quieter entry. Opening the big hanger door, set into the front of the quonset hut, would have been too noisy. We didn’t know what we were walking into. Just as Dave was reaching for the doorknob I put a hand out and stopped him.

Whoosh!!! With a splash the colossal fish crashed back down into the churning dark waters. I could clearly see my small blue bait and where it's sticky sharp treble hooks had deeply imbedded in the magnificent bass's thick jaws. It was as if a submarine was attached to the end of my line. When I hooked the beast I knew immediately this was no ordinary Largemouth Bass. Every time she lept from the from the waters below I could only hope the thin hooks would hold up against her might.

Davie had a friend named Derrick whose grandfather was in the Army. Derrick’s grandfather was able to get Derrick, Davie, and their good friend Martin on base because of his military ID.

It’s funny how one experience can change your way to see the world. You can be certain of something your whole life, but is it really true?
