The boat ride gone awry

I was eager for the first time I went fishing with my grandfather. Though many said that I will hate it and it will be very boring, I was very excited to go and catch some live fish. Finally the day arrived, my grandpa picked me up at me home and we went to huge lake at the outskirts of town. We unloaded the boat and geared up wearing those huge rubber boots and winding up the fishing poles we got into the small fibre boat. We arrived at the spot and let our poles loose but didn’t get any. Then had to wait and in my excitement I forgot to bring anything to spend the time while waiting and since I am very hyper active I started get restless and getting bored. Started thinking to myself may be everyone was right fishing is really boring. Then I felt a small tug on my fishing line I griped the pole tightly in anticipation then it started pulling the line harder. My grandpa told me to lean back but not to break the fishing line. I leaned back using all my strength but it was still pulling me. My heart was racing I used every ounce of strength I had but it eventually pulled me into the water and I lost the line. Grandpa pulled me out of the water but I didn't care about getting wet it was an amazing experience. Then we noticed that the boat had a minor problem that one of the fibre lines were damaged. Luckily, we had the Repair Kit handy and me and my Grand Father worked together to fix the line and thus saving the day and myself from the scary waters. Upon reaching home, I quickly inquired if there are Fiberglass Repair facilities available around the area and yes, there were and they have a neat website from where we have planned to buy another Repair Kit, which will come handy one day or the other.
