    Stocking fish leads to fishing, so here’s a good fishing joke.

    Two old timers, Lou and Mel, go ice fishing. They each compete against each other and so they drill their holes in the ice exactly 50ft apart. Set up their chairs, drop their lines in, pour some coffee from their thermoses and wait for a bite.

    Today, a young man comes along and sets up exactly between the two of them. Presently, he pulls in a fish. Well neither of the old timers had had a bite yet and they watch the youngster. Soon he pulls in another fish. This continues.

    Finally Lou gets up and walks over to the youngster and asks how he is catching so many fish.

    He responds, “mmmm mmmm mmmm mmmmm mmmm”

    Lou shrugs and goes and sits back in his chair. Mel gets up and walks over to his buddy, Lou, and says, “Did he tell you how he is catchin’ all those fish.”

    “Yep, but I couldn’t understand a word he said.”

    So Mel walks over to the youngster and asks, “Me and my buddy haven’t had a nibble. How are you catchin’ all these fish?”

    The youngster replies, “mmmm mmmm mmmm mmmmm mmmm”

    “Eh, What’s that, I can’t understand a word you’re saying.

    The youngster cups his hands, puts them to his mouth, and spits, and says, “GOTTA KEEP YOUR WORMS WARM!”

    Until next time.

    It’s not hard to believe. Haven’t you heard of the flying fish? And if you do it right… or wrong… they end up “sleeping with the fishes!” :D

    I can just hear one of the first generation to have been airdropped into the lake teaching a school of fish a few years later… “Yep I was a flying fish once. I came a great distance from where i was spawned and jumped into this lake from the great beyond. I don’t know how to get back to where i hatched, but it sure was in a high place.”

    Are the fish screened first to see if they’re afraid of heights?

    I actually have grodycibophobia – the fear of bad tasting food.

    Cibophobiacs are good friends with anorexics

    Poor girl. I hope she can manage to eat enough of her fears to remain pretty. Something else to think about.
