The line rose slowly and steadily and then the surface of the ocean bulged ahead of the boat and the fish came out. He came out unending and water poured from his sides. He was bright in the sun and his head and back were dark purple and in the sun the stripes on his sides showed wide and a light lavender. His sword was as long as a baseball bat and tapered like a rapier and he rose his full length from the water and then re-entered it, smoothly, like a diver and the old man saw the great scythe-blade of his tail go under and the line commenced to race out.
That would of been awesome! I have had only a few fish, which were lake trout and sucker fish leave the water like that. And it is so cool when they do that. Also when they hit the water and the leaur does not come out of there mouth. You get to see the moving, wiggling body's, that are usly between 12 and 18 inches, for a flash then they go back under. So I can not even imagine the fish being longer than the boat.
