It all started this morning when my dad got an email from his friend, It said

that there had been sightings of weird fish lurking around in the Hastings water and scientists didn’t know what type it was, It had been plastered all over the news so he knew it would be a big deal if he caught it.

As soon as my dad heard this he grew a big grin across his face “let’s go fishing son”. I should've known he’d say that because anything to do with fishing he would always have to be the one to prove to people he is the best fisherman in the whole world.

Suddenly the boat started to rock the sea sprayed in my face and the smell of fish carcass filled the air then something caught my attention a spiny fin poked out of the water it was as sharp as a knife, after a few terrorizing minutes everything was back to normal but i knew something was hiding beneath us and did not want to be found.

My dad was shaken from what just happened his eyes were wide and bloodshot but that still didn’t put him off he still wanted to find the fish that just attacked us so he decided to dive for the fish.

My dad decided to take drastic action and entered at his own risk. The cave was very dark and the walls were slightly sloped but we finally found an opening... To be Continued
