Ole was stopped by a game warden in Northern Minnesota recently leaving a lake well known for its Walleye, and he had two buckets of fish. The game warden asked, "Do you have a license to catch those fish?" Ole replied, "No, sir! I didn't catch em. Dese here are my pet fish." "Pet fish?" the warden replied. "Ya sure, you betcha." answered Ole. "Every night I take dese fish here down to da lake and let dem svim around for a while. Den I vhistle and dey yump back into deir buckets and I take dem home." "That's a bunch of hooey. Fish can't do that." said the game warden. Ole looked at the game warden with an expression of great hurt, and then said, "Yumpin Yimminy! Vell den, I'll jus show you den. It really does vork, don'tcha know?" "O.K. I've got to see this!," said the warden. The game warden was really curious now. So Ole poured the fish into the lake and stood waiting. After several minutes, the game warden turned to Ole and said, "Well?" "Vell vhat?" responded Ole. "When are you going to call them back?" "Call who back?" asked Ole. "The fish!" "Vhat fish?"
Dang.......... I thought you would be giving out Lutefisk recipes after reading your subject title.............
Don't you know that GTX Joel is either smiling from ear to ear with that one or saying, " That sounds like a good plan!" Besides, I would trust a lutefisk from Joel, but not Dave!:moonu:
Fish Stories Well, don'cha know Ole went out on the lake later that week fishing Alfred Nobel style. Light the dynamite, drop it in, and net your catch! Fish and game decided to go undercover and catch him. Sven was chosen to gain Ole's confidence and go out on a "fishing" expedition with him. After sharing a case of beer with Ole down at the VFW on a Friday night he got invited. Saturday morning they meet up and haul the boat to the launch. After motoring out to a remote corner of the lake, Ole pulls out a half stick and his lighter and sets to work. After the explosion and the harvesting, Sven whips out his badge and tells Ole he's busted. Ole lights another stick, tosses it to Sven, whips out a camera and says -"YOU GONNA TALK, OR YOU GONNA FISH!"
vhat fish ? good one! true fish story: some people spotlight deer, but around here, we spotlight fish. just row the boat along the edge of the river at night with a strong flashlight shined over the bow, and the bass jump right in the boat. some dont want to believe it, i'm not sure i would either until i did it. henry
thats a true story! Both of those storys about Ole are true. I know because he is my 3rd counsin twice removed. (But then so is everybody else in Minnesota) I like how you guys ditch your accents and type right when you are quoting Cousin Ole! Good job. (for those of you in California, it is pronounced ooh-lee with the O accented and drawn out and a long e. Not oh lay like in a bull fight) :grin:
