"No, no, you're holding it wrong, take it like this" John said, helping you take the rod more correctly. He stood behind you, helping you take the rod more confidently to start explaining. "Okay, look, first you have to tie the end of the fishing line through the hook, then wrap it 4-6 times around itself, going back to the reel." - John was clearly showing you how to do this, quite occasionally peering at your face to make sure he knew exactly what he was explaining in clear language. "Then thread the end of the fishing line back through the loop and tighten it. The main thing is to make sure it's tight. Now let's attach the sinker and float and then the bait" - finished with that, he put the fishing rod completely in your hands and then stepped back a little. - "Will you try it yourself? Or should I be the first to show you how to do it?"
