Striped Bass

                                 Home on the lake!

The man was up early and he went out to the lake to do some earlu morning fishing.  Not very long aftr this, his little 6 year old niece scampered out of the house onto the patio that was up the hill from the lake.  The man Chuck caught two very large striped Bass.  He brought the fish up to the patio and put the buckets down right in front of Tabitha his niece.  She looked at the fish in the buckets and squealed with delight.  

Chuck told her to keep an eye on the buckets.  He returned to the lake to fish.  Tabitha did everything, she kept peeking into the buckets.  She tried to touch the fish.  Tabitha finally put both hands in the bucket of the first fish.  As soon as she could she pushed the buket as hard as she could and down the hill the fish went flopping right into the lake.  

Poor Chuck came back later and he was upset to find two empty buckets and no fish.  But Tabitha was in for a surprise, she had played hard with the fish and was still excited. Chuck looked at Tabitha and said really loud my fish Tabitha what did you do with my fish?  When he looked into Tabitha's face with her smile he could'nt help but to smile back at her.
