A redneck was recently stopped by a game warden in Georgia
with two ice chests full of fish. He was leavin' a cove well-known
for its fishing.

The game warden asked the man, 'Do you have a license to catch those
fish?'

'Naw, sir', replied the redneck. 'I ain't got none of them there
licenses.
You
must understand, these here are my pet fish.'

'Pet fish?'

'Yeah. Every night, I take these here fish down to the lake and let 'em
swim
'round for awhile. Then, when I whistle, they jump right back into
these
here
ice chests and I take 'em home.'

'That's a bunch of hooey! Fish can't do that.'

The redneck looked at the warden for a moment and then said, 'It's the
truth
Mr. Government Man. I'll show ya. It really works.'

'O. K.', said the warden. 'I've got to see this!'

The redneck poured the fish into the lake and stood and waited.

After several minutes, the warden says, 'Well?'

'Well, what?', says the redneck.

The warden says, 'When are you going to call them back?'

'Call who back?'

'The FISH', replied the warden!

'What fish?', replied the redneck.


Moral of the story: We may not be as smart as some city slickers,
but we ain't as dumb as some government employees.

You can say what you want about the South, but you never hear

of anyone retiring and moving north.
 
Nah.

Wouldn't happen.

Not when the govmint man could confiscate himself a nice fish supper.... :devilgrin:
 
Oh YEAH!! And don't forget the chips!! :laugh:

I really miss Arthur Treacher's, which was the closest thing to that on this side of the pond, till they closed them up!
 
OK not out of business, just confined to the northeast! Might as well be out of business (to me) since they are no longer anywhere near where I am!
 
Yup. I have a GREAT li'l "independent" fish & chips shop near th' hovel tho. And by some AMAZING coincidence they're a PUB, too! :wink:

An Irish family, but the fare is awesome. I may need to schedule a lunch today... :smirk:
 
Just been told there is one here in Baton Rouge that I need to check up on. Supposedly they use traditional batter :thumbsup:

Stuart. :cheers:
 
There was this good ole boy who always came back with more than his limit of fish, even when nobody else had a nibble. People wondered how he did it. One day the warden goes to him and says, Bubba, I want to go with you and see how you do it. Bubba agress, and the two of them go out in a boat. When they reached the spot, Bubba takes a stick of dynamite from a box, lights it, and throws it in the water. After it explodes, there are alot of fish floating which he gathers. Thge warden says, you can't fish like that, its illegal, I have to arrest you. Bubba takes another stick out, lights it, and hands it to the warden and then says, well, are you going to talk all day or fish?
