The old man gently examined the fish he caught and then placed it in the water from which it came,
"To big " He murmured to himself. He casted his old wooden fishing rod into the lake once again, sighing and then tipping his hat over his eyes, drifting to sleep.

The fishing line made a loud sound as it spun around the reel at a frightening speed, The old man leaped to the side of the boat to see the ruckus on the end of the line. Water splashed into the man's
face and disarrayed him, The noise suddenly stopped, The man looked out onto the lake. The creature that disturbed the man in his sleep was surely gone now. He sat down into his boat again, disappointed.

A short random piece I wrote, I was concentrating on what I was righting here. Hopefully it shows.
( sorry if it bored you, kids ;D )

Was pretty good, although I would have liked to see a bit more descriptiveness and "big words" used in the second paragraph. It just felt a bit too bland, especially when compared the opening.

Otherwise, it was good. I mean, it's hard to get a sense of how well you can write fiction in such a brief passage, but it doesn't seem all that bad.
