"My fishing boat is over there" I said slightly excitedly, and pointed at a squat fishing boat small enough to be ran by one person, but with plenty of room for equipment, and harvests thanks to a narrow outrigger with a reed mesh covering the top of it. "I'll happily take you out on it, if you'll do me one favor, and reel in a line I casted out when I first got started." I made the offer I liked, no loved fishing, but I liked having a fishing buddy to come along.

I finished hauling my cast net. There was enough anchovies in the bucket for cut bait. It was going to be a good day. I picked up bait buckets in one hand. my net draped over my shoulder, and my lunch box in the other, I was loaded down but not too heavy, and deftly brought my supplies to my boat. Everything was almost of a military order on my boat, things tucked away, or lashed to the inside of it, I had gaffs, and tridents, and a few Alerarian fishing poles.

I made sure that my new companion was ok, and when I had finished putting away my bait, I began making my way toward her. "How you doing my young friend?!" I called out.
