Do they get gill cancer??

I tried smoking trout one time, but I couldn’t keep it lit.

Not just smoked trout. Self-smoked trout.

I’ve heard of smoked Salomon but…

Suddenly, I’ve lost my appetite.

Those are some big trout.

He forgot the signs that say “Today only” and “Non-stoutening”. (My granddad sold “smoked mullets and trouts” at Mexico Beach, FL.)

Smoke ’em if you got ’em.

They’re (herb) flavored, but the more you eat the hungrier you get!

They didn’t taste the same once they started vaping.

I wonder what the Sturgeon General will have to say about that…

When you are that bad as an artist, you should, at least, be funny..this is just silly!…in my opinion!

I’ll pass, thanks.

I guess this is one instance where e-cigarettes might be more hazardous to one’s health.

I’ll take the one that’s a silly millimeter longer.

Nah, just stick a starfish on my arm—I’m tryin’ to quit.
