Devil's Lake Fishing
By Tammy Scarbrough
  

1     When the weather's right, we like to load the boat and head up to Devil's Lake in North Dakota. The weather was cool, and the lake was calm. We cranked up the motor and headed for our favorite fishing spot. We turned on our depth finder and started to look at the electronic map of the bottom of the lake. We found what we were looking for.
 
2     It looked like a small mountain under water. It was twenty feet under the boat and went as deep as eighty feet. We saw a lot of black spots and squiggly lines on the depth finder. We cast our colorful lures out and let them sink to the bottom of the lake. Then we slowly jerked them up and down. All of a sudden, the pole in my hand jerked hard. My grip tightened. My heart started to race as my fishing reel began to scream.
 
3     "I got a fish!" I hollered.
