Wilderness Survival Redux - Week 5 | Thursday Morning, A Clearing in the Woods

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Callisto looked distracted as she addressed the class. "Clothes and shoes. And we're doing today's class in the water, so if you want to wear your clothes the entire class, be my guest."

Once she'd collected clothing from those willing to give it up, she gestured to a set of spears and hand woven nets. "Last week we looked at hunting land animals, this week is fish, so take either a net or a spear, then follow me."

Callisto led the class though the preserve down to the beach, then into the water. Where she proceeded to give a lecture on basic fishing techniques.

"Now spend the rest of the class trying out spear, net and bare hand techniques, but those of you with spears, please be careful of your fellow students, as we don't want to have any accidents that might attract sharks."

"Anything you catch, you're expected to clean and cook yourself."

Anders splashes Bridge and wades over. "Hey, dude! Mind-whammy a fish or two for me, will you? They don't think my fingers are that tasty."

Bridge sticks out his tongue and splashes back. "I was actually just trying to figure out if that would be cheating at fishing..." Bridge says.

"It's bait!" Anders replies. "Just to get them to come over here, not so they float there and just let us grab 'em. How is that different from worms or those freaky neon egg things?"

Bridge shrugs and ducks one ungloved hand underwater and tries to think fishie thoughts.

"Did it work?" he asks after a minute.

Anders frowns as he feels something nibbling on his fingers.

Something really tiny.

Oh, look, minnows.

"Sorta?"

Bridge attempts to think louder.

Here fishie fishie fishie...

And suddenly an entire swarm of minnows is nibbling at Anders's fingers.

"Ack!" he yelps. "That tickles!"
