Thousands of years ago there was a Māori legend about Maui's fish. That’s what we will be telling you about today. Once Maui wanted to go fishing with his brothers but his brothers wouldn't let him. They were saying stuff like your too small and you can’t even catch a little trout. Maui was annoyed so he made a decision to hide in his brother’s boat before they set out to sea. When they set out to sea, Maui jumped out of the boat and started to fish with his brothers in surprise.
Maui caught something very big, bigger than you could imagine. Maui kept trying to reel it in, he finally brought it up. Yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay they all yelled. They had fished up the North Island which is actually a massive fish. Then they saw a massive storm coming. They jumped over so many waves until a tsunami came and smashed the boat. Eventually the boat became the South Island.
