As this is another “travel week” you’ll have to find other sources for your noon chuckle. As I hear so few true fishing jokes I felt obligated to share.
A woman goes into Cabela’s to buy a rod and reel for her grandson’s birthday. She doesn’t know which one to get, so she just grabs one and goes over to the counter.
The clerk was standing behind the counter wearing dark shades. She says to him, “Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me anything about this rod and reel?”
He says, “Ma’am, I’m completely blind; but if you’ll drop it on the counter, I can tell you everything from the sound it makes.”
She doesn’t believe him but drops it on the counter anyway……He says, “That’s a six-foot Shakespeare graphite rod with a Zebco 404 reel and 10-LB. Test line. It’s a good all-around combination, and it’s on sale this week for only $20.00.”
She says, “It’s amazing that you can tell all that just by the sound of it dropping on the counter. I’ll take it!”
As she opens her purse, her credit card drops on the floor. “Oh, that sounds like a Master Card,” he says. She bends down to pick it up and accidentally farts.
At first she is really embarrassed, but then realizes……there is no way the blind clerk could tell it was her who tooted. Being blind, he wouldn’t know that she was the only person around?
The man rings up the sale and says, “That’ll be $34.50 please.”
The woman is totally confused by this and asks, “Didn’t you tell me the rod and reel were on sale for $20.00? How did you get $34.50?”
He replies, “Yes, ma’am. The rod and reel is $20.00, but the Duck Call is $11.00, and the Catfish Bait is $3.50.” She paid it and left without saying a word.
A fisherman married his sweetheart, and on their wedding night, she put a huge tackle box with a padlock on it at the foot of their bed, hung the key around her neck, and refused to tell him what was inside it. For decades, this drove him crazy, but she steadfastly refused to reveal the contents.
Finally, on their fiftieth wedding anniversary, he told her, “Look, I’ve stuck by you for fifty years, and I’ve been a good husband, but this is driving me nuts. What’s in that tackle box?”
She thought about it for a moment, and then handed him the key. When he opened it, the only things inside were a Rapala Original Floating Minnow and fifty thousand dollars in banded hundreds.
“I don’t get it,” he said.
“Well,” she said sweetly, “I made a sacred vow to myself on our wedding night that I would try to always be faithful, but if I ever slipped, I’d put one of those lures in this box every time I did.”
“Honey,” he said, “I’m not too happy that you cheated on me, but I guess once in fifty years isn’t too bad. But where did all the money come from?”
“Oh,” she replied, “every time I got a dozen, I sold them.”
Thanks, that made my day.
