My dad likes to fish. Fishing is really fun and it keeps you busy. But it is not fun when you don't catch any fish. I think the rule of fishing is fair. People go out to fish and catch a lot but some people don't catch any. 

But I think it is a bit unfair too because people shouldn't be fined just because they overfished.

If my dad came back to my house from a fishing trip and he came back with nothing I will be so disappointed. But if my dad came back from a fishing trip with too much I will be disappointed too.

Do you think it is unfair?

Good Things
I think being a DOC is hard work but you will get alot of money
You can tell great stories to your family
You can discover a lot of new things.

Bad Things
You will be away from your family
The animals might be dangerous
It will take a long time to find a great thing.

I don't think I want to be a DOC because I like Dogs and others not Lizards and stuff.
