Fishy Story

Once upon a time, there lived 5 brothers ( A,I, PH,PG and T) and their childhood friend(B) in a fishing village.

Despite the love for fishing, the 6 of them had different luck and mentality towards this trade.

One fine day, the 6 fisherman wanabees decided to try their luck in the open sea.

Each of them rowed out to the ocean with their small sampan which can only take the weight of a fisherman and a fish at any one time.

Brother A is a honest chap but with little luck in fishing. He is thrifty person and would not want to spend too much on the baits to maximize the return from the trip. After a long day out in the sea, he is still waiting, waiting and waiting…….His objective is to get a fish and row back to the village and live happily ever after..

Brother I shares almost the same fate as Bro A. He once caught a fish but decided to give it up and hope for a better catch. He is also still waiting like Bro A ….

Brother PH is fish lover and dare devil. The lady luck is always smiling upon him and he has no problem in catching any fishes he fancy. He is willing to spend on the best bait for top quality fishes. The only problem is that his sampan has room only for one fish. Being a risk taker, Bro PH insisted to keep as many fishes as possible and go against the payload limit of the sampan. The fishes in Bro PH’s sampan started to get jealous of each other and ended up quarrelling and fighting with each. In a way, you can say Bro PH’s sampan is the most “happening” sampan in the water as it never fails to give surprises and “weird noises” :P

Brother PG is a simple guy and always believes in reward through his hard work. Bro PH once nearly caught a big fish but the fishing line snapped in the struggle. Being a hardworking fisherman, he continued to fish despite the setback but the hunter became the prey this time round. Bro PG was eaten by a giant sperm whale and all is left were the wooden planks from his sampan.

Bro T is a caring and loyal person. He managed to catch a red snapper in the early stage of the trip. Being a loyal and caring person, Bro T makes sure the fish that he caught is taken care of and didn’t even bother to lookout for other better fishes in the sea. There is rumor reported by Bro PH that a mermaid once swam pass Bro T’s sampan and Bro T didn’t even bother to take a 2nd look at her. He is so sure that the red snapper is the fish he wants from now till forever…..

Their childhood friend B is a smart guy and is good with statistics. The only problem is that he likes to take shortcuts Based on his calculation; he is so sure that the calm sea is safe for diving.

He decided to dive into the sea and catch the best fish in the shortest possible time. Once into the ocean, he saw different types of fishes and he took his time to choose the best. He could not make up his mind on the best fish as there are always a better ones in the deep end of the ocean and so he swam deeper and deeper into the dark ocean bed. Friend B was never seen again…..
