Mistfall lead Eveningpaw towards the quiet pond. This was a great place to teach someone to hunt and swim. The water was still, unlike the river, so it made it easier to catch the fish. They were easier to see and moving slower since there no current to swim with. The warrior took a deep breath to calm her nerves, praying to Starclan that she wouldn't mess up too much while teaching her new apprentice to hunt. She wasn't sure if it was a good thing or a bad thing that her apprentice was older. They would most likely be less clumsy and more alert than a younger cat, but they also were use to a completely different kind of hunting and would have to learn to fish instead of hunting land-prey. They were very different.

"Okay," the warrior stopped a few paw steps from the edge and turned to Eveningpaw. "There are a few things to keep in mind, it's not as easy as it seems," this was from personal experience. She waved her tail for the other molly to come closer. "You need to get close to the water and you have to wait. This can take patience and sometimes you're muscles can get stiff," she got into position to show Eveningpaw. "But you don't want to lean over the water, fishes can see your shadow and will be scared away." Mistfall was close to the river, crouching next to it, but was not leaning over the water. This made it slightly more difficult to see the fish when they were close, but at least they weren't scaring any away. Her pale blue gaze watching her apprentice to see if she explained and demonstrated well enough.
