The Hiwi the kiwi story

Dad and I start to slow down as we reach Riversdale beach and head straight to the shore. We move the speed boat into the water. Dad told me to hop in but I said' you forgot something,'holding up the life jackets. Dad put his on and so did I, I then hop in the speed boat with dad and we went to our favourite fishing spot. When we get there dad gets the fishing rods out and gives me a fishing rod. I put some bait on it and then gave dad the bait. I throw my fishing line into the water. 2 hours later........suddenly my line begins to pull, 'Ive caught one' I said as dad told me what to do. Suddenly the fish uses  its power and draggs  me over board. Dad told me to let go so I did. I swam back to the boat and dad pulls me back on board.

Once I was on board again,I told dad if it hadn't been for my life jacket I would probably be dead. Dad agreed and with that we went back to the sand to see how many fish we had caught, we caught 4 fish. We went home to Vanessa,Ivy and Ro Ro. We had cooked salmon for tea and for the rest of the times we went fishing dad always brought the life jackets with us. Dad learnt from when I fell off the speed boat that the life jacket saved my life.
