I would then basically drown due to the fact that the fish would pull me into deep water and not let me go. Big fish have been a fear of mine since I was a young girl.

Some adapted from Herculean trails to fit the main character, others faintly resembling various mythological tales such as Odysseus's journey, and some a creation all of their own.
