Reality Check by Dave Whamond for February 05, 2022

Well, he’s definitely no brain sturgeon

It’s a puntastic Reality Check today!

Ralph, he doesn’t look like a Koi.

I dunno. There’s something that make me think he’s gill-ty.

Well, you oh-fish-alls looks guilty yourselfs.

Isn’t he that actor Sal Minnow???

He definitely looks like he doesn’t belong here. He’s a fish out of water.

These cops are floundering.

I’ll bet you a fin he’s up to no good…

My college had a folk club called “The Red Herring”. I saw Steve Goodman and Loudon Wainwright III there.

Elementary school, my dear Watson.

Is a Red Herring the same as a De-Koi?

They should SHADow him to see what he’s up to. He shouldn’t be hanging around the school on the Sabbath, he needs to get to shoal.

Ralph may have a clue….

I think the fish cops will probably have to “Mullet” over a while.

Time for a sniff test.. you can always tell a red herring by the smell, if it smells like fish.. it likely is.

Don’t worry; we have a lox on the case. With the wisdom of Salmon, we’ll smoke out the culprit soon.

(Hmmm, I could go for a bagel right about now.)

I would’ve given him a coat of red ink.

He writes about marine life. He’s a read herring.

A whale of a tail …!

{sorry, tried for something that smelt, but tis_wat_tis}

He looks more like a light purple herring.

Seemed like a good suspect but then they realized that they had been catfished.

Has Ralph been hanging around Stephan Pastis?

Kip Addotta for the win:
