A Farmer In The Country Noticed That A Gentleman Would Fish
At The Lake (close To The Farmer's House) And Would Always
Leave With A Stringer Full Of Fish.
A farmer in the country noticed that a gentleman would fish
at the lake (close to the farmer's house) and would always
leave with a stringer full of fish. The fellow had a boat
but a fishing pole was not to be seen. The farmer mentioned
the situation to the lake ranger. The ranger then started
watching this man and all that the farmer said was true! The
man would arrive at the lake in the morning and by early
afternoon, he had a stringer full of fish. The ranger dressed
like a fisherman one day and approached the man. They exchanged
pleasantries and the stranger asked the ranger in disguise to
come fish with him. They boated for 45 minutes and arrived at
a secluded spot. The stranger then pulled out a stick of dynamite.
Ranger: "I'm going to have to place you under arrest - I am
a Ranger and you are fishing illegally!"
The stranger calmly lit the stick of dynamite and handed it to
the ranger.
