Let’s Go Fishing（下）

Packing was a project in itself.

Dave had even created a computer

file named Fishing Trip. It was a

checklist of 45 things to take to Big Bear.

He took two rods, because on Free

Fishing Day you were allowed to fish

with two rods instead of the usual one rod.

He took a hooded sweatshirt(运动衫), jeans,

two pair of socks, a heavy hooded(戴头巾)

denim jacket, winter gloves, and a scarf(围巾).

He also took flip-flops(啪嗒啪嗒

的响声), shorts, a T-shirt,

#30 sun block, sunglasses(太阳镜), a big hat,

and a lightweight raincoat. If you go to

Big Bear in June, you’d better be prepared

for hot or cold, rain or shine.

He packed a couple of magazines to

read just in case the fish weren’t biting(咬住).

He and his friends joked that the fish were

always biting - in the spot you just left

or the spot you were headed to.

After about an hour and a half,

Dave had gathered(会集) all the items on

his list into a neat pile next to his door.

He went to bed knowing that tomorrow’s

weather and fishing were unpredictable(变化莫测),

but the good time with his friends was a given.
