Let go. 13 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: Today was a perfect day for Eric and Leo to 14 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: go phishing. Have you ever gone fishing before? That's a 15 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 1: really fun thing to do when it's pretty simple. You 16 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: just need a fishing pole with a hook and a 17 00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: maybe bobber and and some worms. 18 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 2: Have you ever held a slimy worm before? It could 19 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 2: be a little little extra slimy. 20 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: Well, when you put the worm on the hook, then 21 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 1: you throw it in the water, and you gotta be patient. 22 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: Sometimes the fish are very hungry. Sometimes you gotta have 23 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: to wait a little bit longer. But Eric and Leo 24 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 1: were both very patient fishermen. Hey, Leo, have you got 25 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: any bites. 26 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 2: Yet, shout outed Eric. 27 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: Not yet, but I've seen some big ones swimming nearby, 28 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: said Leo. It was a hot Saturday morning and they 29 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: hadn't gotten any bites yet. But Eric and Leo were 30 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: determined to catch this monster fish. 31 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 2: You see, this. 32 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: Pond near their house had an old legend that there 33 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: was like a ginormous fish, a fish that was so 34 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: big it would just bite right through the fishing line 35 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: and everyone always tried to catch it, but it was 36 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: just too big. But Eric and Leo they were determined 37 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: to catch that legendary ginormous fish. Hey, I'm gonna take 38 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: a break for a second. I'm gonna just leave my 39 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: pol sitting over here, said Eric. He walked over to 40 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,679 Speaker 1: their snack bag, which is where they had brought some snacks. 41 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 1: Which that's a really important part of fishing. It could 42 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: take a little while to catch a fish, so you 43 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: definitely need some snacks and some water. Oh while you're waiting, 44 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: Oh these are good. You want some, Leo said Eric. Yeah, 45 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: I'd love some. Eric passed the bag of snacks. 46 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 2: Over to Leo and he gobbled him down. 47 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: So what do you think this legendary fish actually is, 48 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: asked Eric. 49 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 2: Hmm. 50 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: I thought maybe like it's an old sturgeon, or maybe 51 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: he ish a little shark that got loose in this 52 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: pond somehow, a long time ago, and it's just grown 53 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: up and just sits down at the bottom. That would 54 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: be insane. I've always thought it was a g enormous catfish, 55 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,679 Speaker 1: but I like your ideas better, said Eric. 56 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 2: Eric. Your pole, look, shouted Leo. 57 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: Eric's pole. 58 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 2: He had leaned it up against a tree branch, and. 59 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: It was all of a sudden, just like being pulled 60 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 1: almost into the pond. It was dipped over and looked 61 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: like an upside down j letter because it was bending 62 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 1: so much. 63 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 2: Eric ran over as fast as he could. 64 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: He slid his feet through the dirt like he was 65 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: sliding into second base, and grabbed onto the fishing pole 66 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: before it got pulled right into the water. 67 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 2: I got it. 68 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: It's on, Leo, I need your help, shouted Eric. Leo 69 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: came running over and held onto Eric's shoulders so that 70 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: Eric wouldn't get pulled into the water too. 71 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 2: Don't let me go, said Eric. It's about to pull 72 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 2: me into the water. 73 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: I won't let you go, said Leo. I got you 74 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: just keep reeling, don't let go of the pole. We've 75 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: got to catch this monster. It was the most epic 76 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: of fishing battles I've ever seen. 77 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 2: Eric was using all of his muscles. 78 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: There was sweat pouring down his face, and Leo is 79 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: holding on for Eric's life because if he lets go, 80 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: Eric is going flying. I mean, zuom it right into 81 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:35,919 Speaker 1: the pond. There seriously must be like a ginormous, legendary 82 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: fish in there. What do you think it is? I 83 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: wonder if they're right. Do you think a shark could 84 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: actually live in a pond like that. 85 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 2: It's getting closer to shore. I've almost got it. 86 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: Eric had reeled it as much as he could, and 87 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:52,799 Speaker 1: he could tell that it was close to shore. 88 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 2: They still couldn't see what kind of creature what it was, 89 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 2: but all of a sudden, it poked out its head. Hey, 90 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: why do you guys keep bothering me? 91 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,280 Speaker 1: Eric and Leo were thrown back into the grass. They 92 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: couldn't believe it. Leo, it's not a fish. That's a 93 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: ginormous snapping turtle. 94 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 2: He was right. 95 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,919 Speaker 1: It was actually not a fish that they had caught, 96 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: but it was a ginormous snapping turtle that looked pretty upset. 97 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 2: I got a hand or two you. 98 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: You too are pretty strong, But seriously, why do you 99 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: keep bothering me? Said the snapping turtle. We're so sorry, 100 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: said Leo. We really thought that you were like a 101 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 1: ginormous fish, But has it really been you this entire time? 102 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: Are you the legendary fish that everyone's tried to catch? 103 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 2: Yes, it's me. 104 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: It gets pretty frustrating when people fish in here because 105 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 1: there's not any fish in here. It's only me, and 106 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: so I bite those hooks to get him out of here. 107 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: You just gotta find a different place to go fishing. 108 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: Eric and Leo were completely shocked. Not only did they 109 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: just learn that there's no fish in this pond, but 110 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 1: they just got a t ginormous, talking, snapping turtle. I've 111 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: never seen that before, and neither have they. We're so sorry, 112 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 1: mister snapping turtle. Uh yeah, we'll stop fishing here and 113 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: we'll stop bothering you and leave you alone. 114 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 2: Said Eric. Okay, thank you. 115 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: There's a good pond just east of here a couple minutes. 116 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: You should check out there. It's full of amazing fish. 117 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: That's where I go to eat my lunch, said the turtle. Oh, 118 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 1: thank you so much for the tip, said Leo. We'll 119 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: head over there right now, and we will never fish 120 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 1: in this pond ever again. And just then the snapping 121 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: turtle went back into the water and disappeared. Eric and 122 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: Leo looked at each other and they shook their heads. 123 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: They couldn't even believe that that was actually just happened. 124 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: It felt like a dream, but it was real. The 125 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: rest of the day they spent over at that other 126 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: pond that the snapping turtle recommended and caught a ton 127 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: of fish. He was totally right, and now they found 128 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: a new place to go fishing, and they will never 129 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: ever go back to that pond with the mysterious legendary 130 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: fish that's. 131 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 2: Actually a snapping turtle.
