A fishing miracle


I went to the beach Emerald Isle, for a week. We had planned to go on the beach with my mom’s  family, the Newton’s. (Abby, Casey, Lindsey, Uncle Dale, Cole, Roman, Aunt Emmie, Dan, Alan, Elizabeth, and David). We were going on the beach on Tuesday, August 02, 2011. Me, Abby, Casey and Faye were looking for sand fleas in the water. We found lots of them. After we found a couple we put them in a blue pool with a little bit of sand and water. Then we got tired of looking and went in the water to swim. I met a girl, Zira, who was very kind. We played in the sand some. We swam in the water again. Then mom said we had to leave in a little while. The girl’s said there was a shark in the water, I couldn’t see it, and they yelled,” There’s a shark! There’s a shark!” Anyway, After a while Zira had a little net and I asked to borrow it to see if I could catch a few fish. The first time I just caught sand and seaweed. Then a couple of tries later I caught two silver little fish.  I was so excited and ran up to the dark green tent. Mom said, “Oh my gosh! Wholly smokes! Ellie!” Dad said, “ Ellie, Did you really catch those?!” I was so excited that I told the girls and they were like,  “Cool!” Then I put them back in the water and headed back to fishing with the net again. I caught some sand again then I caught two sand fleas. After a couple tries I caught another silver little fish. And that was my fishing miracle.
