covering a mile in just ten steps. He got to the lake in no time. Immediately, two huge
fish jumped out of the water and waved to Freddie. He baited his hook with about ten
pounds of worms and casts his line. “Eat up! Eat up!” Freddie yelled. One fish
chomped on the hook and was caught. It tried to swim away and pulled out a hundred
miles of line, Then the other big fish chomped on the first fish and it swam out another
