Aslan wasn't sure he'd ever had anyone listen to him quite so intently though Fate was certainly focussed now, mimicking his actions carefully before taking another attempt at catching a fish. He'd definitely taken the advice seriously, the subtle little differences now were clear and as the paw darted down into the water a fish came flying through the air as he scooped it back out. Aslan watched, a proud smile on his face though it seemed it was a little premature.
The fish went straight up into the air and though Fate tried hard to catch it, jaws missed the fish and it landed back in it's home with a splash before swimming away again. It had left the boy rather disheartened, once more looking back to Aslan clearly in search of more advice. Fortunately he had it.
"If you want to use your paw you've got to scoop backwards rather than straight up, that way it'll hopefully land on the ground rather than back in the water." He informed the boy. There was another tactic of course that he could try, though if you didn't want to stick your head under the water then it wasn't the right method at all. "You could use your mouth to catch it instead of your paw, especially if you're in the water and can't scoop the fish out towards the land. Same thing, keep close but lower your nose to the water instead. You'll have to stick your head under to catch it though."
