This is very well written, and I enjoyed the story very much. It has a very profound message and you have written it well. I wish you a blessed day and I am glad that you got to experience this trip and the fishing with the old gentleman. Patricia .

This is a fine story of strangers sharing their experience of life. However, I was puzzled as I reached the end and still didn't understand how the bread stayed attached to the fish-hook. kay

    Ha! Now you found the mystery to the story. i am notorious in my stories to leave something out I know the reader is expecting. It's what I call "Chapter Two." Thank you for your wonderful review. -Bill

Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. I would suggest breaking your paragraphs with a space for easier reading. I can see you probably did it in your manuscript, but on FanStory you need to physically add the space. I enjoyed this story. Yes, we are part of God's family. Good luck with the contest.

Early the next morning, before sunrise, (the following morning, has to deal with definition)

"If you have only bread for bait, how do you keep it from falling off the hooks when they hit the water?
He smiled and said, "Ah! I show you!" He went over to his old beat up car and pulled out a large piece of very stale, very hard loaf of bread. He looked at me and instructed, "You bite into bread and put on hook! No?" (each person speaking gets their own paragraph)
