Otter Creek Thought it was them, but maybe it's me

hoping for someone who can give taki some pointers on fishing, but not a requirement or anything

She wandered from the spire once more, something she was slowly regaining the energy for. She was still thin, but less so; the weight was taking its sweet time rebuilding, and it kept her bound to Sagtannet still—that and her son, who she couldn't imagine leaving again. She was stuck trying to make an impossible decision and blaming it solely on her condition for as long as it still made her too weak to leave on her own. 

But she had ventured to the creek today to get away from all of that. She wanted peace and some kind of distraction from her life. As always, the water was a welcome sight, especially after a trek down the side of the mountains in the middle of the summer. Today hadn't even been as warm as it had been, but it was still not cold enough for her liking. So the second she spotted water, she sprinted for it, sinking herself into its cool depths the second her paws met the creek. 

She lay down in the shallow end and let the water seep into her fur, staying like that for a long while. Eventually, the water settled around her, and the sound of a splash made her eyes flick over to the ripples left in the water by what she now realized was a fish. She watched and waited for the creature to swim closer. It took longer than expected but when she saw it glide by her paw, she shot her muzzle into the water and snapped her jaws a few times, pulling her head up with nothing but a mouth full of water to show for it. Now she was set on catching one of these things on principle alone, so she settled again and waited.
