I just got this in an email from a friend. I think that its clever.
A Northern Manitoba Metis was stopped by a game warden just outside of Lake
Manitoba Narrows recently with two ice chests of fish, leaving an area lake
well known for the fishing.The game warden asked the man, “Do you have a license to catch those fish?”
“Naw, my friend, I ain’t got no license. These are my pet fish.”
“Pet fish?”
“Yep. Every night I take these fish down to the lake and let ‘em swim’round
for a while. Then I whistle and they jump right back into this ice chest
and I take ‘em home.”“That’s a bunch of crap! Fish can’t do that!”
The Metis looked at the game warden for a moment and then said, “It’s the
truth. I’ll show you. It really works.”“Okay, I’ve GOT to see this!”
The Metis poured the fish into the lake and stood and waited.
After several minutes, the game warden turned to him and said, “Well?”
“Well, what?” said the Metis!
“When are you going to call them back?”
“Call who back?”
“The FISH!”
“What fish?”
Great Joke! I’m gonna have to forward this link to my fishin’ buddies.
I thought that was worth sharing. Glad you thought so as well! BTW, you have a nice site. It must have taken a pile of time to compile all of that information and put it to pages (are you gonna expand it to include Canada?).
