Hook,
line, and sinker! 
      A
man
was
stopped by a game warden 
in Northern Minnesota recently with
2 buckets of 
fish leaving a
lake 
well known for its fishing. The 
game 
warden asked the man, "Do you have 
a
license to catch THOSE FISH?" 
      
      The
man replied to the game warden, 
      "No,
sir.
These are MY 
PET FISH." 
       
      "PET FISH?!"
the warden
replied. 
       
      "Yes, sir. Every night
I take 
  these 
fish down to the lake 
  and let them 
swim around 
  for a while. I whistle 
and 
  they jump back
into their 
  buckets,
and I take 'em 
  home." 
      "THAT'S
A BUNCH 
  OF HOOEY! FISH 
  CAN'T DO THAT!" 
      The
man looked at the game warden 
for a moment, and then said, "Here, 
I'LL SHOW YOU. It 
really works." 
      "O.K.
I'VE GOT TO 
SEE THIS!" the
      game warden 
replied. 
       
The man poured the fish into the 
water 
and stood and waited. 
       
      After several
minutes, 
the game 
warden turned 
to the man and
      
said, "WELL?" 
       
      "WELL, WHAT?" 
the man asked. 
       
      "WHEN ARE YOU 
       GOING TO CALL 
       THEM
BACK?" the  
     game warden prompted.  
       
      "CALL WHO
BACK?"  
the man asked. 
       
      "THE FISH." 
       
      "WHAT
FISH?"
the man asked.
