Task notes

Also on the end of the fishing line, there are a rubber duck and a large magnet.
The fishing rod is mounted to a pivot on a stand, on a walkway over a train track, in the loading platform area of Thorpe Park’s Ghost Train.
Also on the walkway, there is a frying pan on a plinth, a stack of empty suitcases, and a bin.
Scattered on the track below, there are 27 yellow wooden fish, with black stripes of magnetic tape, and googly eyes on their upper surfaces, and one or more black dots drawn on their undersides.
There is also a red marker pen (with black ink) on the tracks, which also has strips of magnetic tape on it.
A 28th wooden fish is attached to the bottom of the frying pan, but only has 10 dots on it.
