The host seemed to have lost interest in this predictable competition.
He stood at the center of the deck, motionless, ready to announce the results of the second round. He had even prepared his lines: The Jefferson Group continues to lead and is likely to claim the final championship.
But then.
Thanks to the efforts of Arthur Lindsey and Dilbert Walker, the heavy fishing line finally floated up from the sea floor, moved beyond the ship's side, and hung freely in the air-
A string of sea fish were hooked on the fishing line!
They were attached end to end, clustering together, not a single one falling off!
They were clinging to each other as if they couldn't wait to see the world!
"So many fish!"
Someone in the crowd exclaimed in surprise. Everyone turned their heads and saw the sea fish, sparkling in the sunlight, wagging their tails, splashing up bright seawater, jumping onto the deck.
Instantly, everyone went wild.
