Legend has it that there once lived a pirate sailing off the coast of Australia, traversing the border of the whole country long before it was settled by the Europeans. This particular pirate was notorious for his love of fishing. He would spend hours on his ship, trolling the waters for the biggest and most elusive catches. I looked more into this pirate’s story, since I’ve always been fascinated by tales of pirates and their escapades on the high seas. But what I discovered about this pirate was shocking. It was said that the pirate spared no expense when it came to outfitting his ship with the best possible equipment. While he still resided in Europe, he had hired the best marine fabrication experts to install the best rod holders for boats on his ship, ensuring that they were sturdy and reliable enough to withstand even the roughest of seas. But it wasn’t just the equipment that made this pirate such a formidable force on the water. He was also known for his cunning, always staying one step ahead of his enemies by stocking his ship with cannons and flares and other things that could deter other pirates. And, of course, his love of fishing gave him a unique advantage, allowing him to navigate the waters with ease and catch the biggest fish around. As the story goes, the pirate continued to roam the seas for years, evading capture and striking fear into the hearts of his enemies. He even toyed with the other pirates by passing around fake boat catch installation instructions so that they would incorrectly install the crucial piece of machinery on their ships. And all the while, the pirate remained true to his love of fishing, never compromising on the quality of his equipment or the precision of his technique. To this day, the legend of the fishing pirate lives on, although the story isn’t as popular as it was a few decades ago. I plan to bring the story of the pirate back to popularity by publishing a newspaper article about his travels. I just have to do more research first.
