When we were in England last year, I went fishing with my friend, Peter. Early in the morning, we were sitting quietly by the side of the lake when we had an unpleasant surprise. We saw the duck come along with three ducklings paddling cheerfully behind her. As we watched them there was a sudden swirl in the water. We caught a glimpse of the vicious jaws of a pike-a fish which is rather like a fresh water shark and one of the ducklings was dragged below the surface. This incident made Peter furious. He vowed to catch the pike. On three successive mornings we returned to the vicinity and used several different kinds of baits. On the third day Peter was lucky. Using an artificial frog as bait, he managed to hook the monster. There was a desperate fight but Peter was determined to capture the pike and he succeeded.
