Always wanted to conquer the beasts of the sea?

Well, this Ecuadorian guy can teach you!

BOGOTA, Nueva Granada -

A top bloke under the name of Vicente Rocafuerte has preached to the choir on how to fish, originally intended to the fishermen of Manobi. However, it has since been circulated across Ecuador and Nueva Grenada. We can reveal that we have managed to obtain a copy of his original instructions:

        1) Try to utilize every fish and seafood you catch, even the strange ones. When cooked properly, only extremely rare fish are poisonous.         2) If you are fishing by the fishing rod from the coast, try exploring various types of baits such as worms, old remaining food.         3) If you have the capacity to fish on the open sea, try increasing the distance from the coast.

These instructions have drawn a large reception. The majority of fishermen and the wider communities have mocked Rocafuerte for doing this in the first place, but also for being patronising.

We are unable to get hold of Rocafuerte, who we assume is trying to teach farmers next how to grow crops.
