A guy invited a friend to go fishing, unaware that he was a game warden. When they got out on the lake, the man lit a stick of dynamite and tossed it over, resulting in the expected haul of fish. His guest was shocked and said he was going to arrest him for his illegal act. The man calmly lit another stick, handed it to his guest and said: “So are you going to talk or fish?”
During WWII some soldiers noticed that landing craft chased swarms of fish in front of them. Until the MPs stopped them, they were tossing grenades to either side of these craft as they neared the beach.
In the townhouse I once lived, there was a “canal” that ran behind our house. I used to go fishing for carp which were great fighters. I’d always toss them back in, though. I don’t think they’re “edible” and the canal was fed by storm drains so it’s a safe bet that it was polluted.
And now with Trump back in the tractor seat, maybe we will be able to afford to buy groceries again and the farmers will be able to farm again – soon, anyway. There are still a lot of bug eaters and farmer haters out there.
All that gear just complicates things. I get the same level of fun snoozing by the creek all afternoon. Then buying a box of fish sticks on the way home.

If you can’t catch ’em, blow ’em out of the water.

Two reasons to go fishing. First is relaxation and the joy of being in the outdoors. Second is getting food for supper.

“They” tell me that eating lots of fish is good food for the brain.
If so, I figure it’s because fish are always in school.

The old Jerry Clower monologue about Marcel Ledbetter and the Game Warden going fishing. An old classic.
