Who got me involved in fishing:
My first memory of fishing was with my father and mother. We went out fishing as a family during my growing years until I finally left home
Favorite Fishing Story:
Fishing where a stream ran into the Cedar Rapids river I would cast and something would follow my lure and than turn around rejecting it. I kept trying again and again with different lures until finally I hooked my first Northern Pike. It was the most exciting fight I had ever had with a fish.
Best Fishing Joke:
A man was stopped by a game-warden in Northern Algonquin Park recently with two 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 here 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 was curious.
The man poured the fish in to the river and stood and waited. After several minutes, the game warden turned to the man and said, "Well?"
"Well, what?" the man responded.
"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.
