Priest Goes Fishing
An Irish priest loved to fly fish, it was an obsession of his. So far this year the weather had been so bad that he hadn’t had a chance to get his beloved waders on and his favorite flies out of their box. Strangely though, every Sunday the weather had been good, but of course Sunday is the day he has to go to work.
The weather forecast was good again for the coming Sunday so he called a fellow priest claiming to have lost his voice and be in bed with the flu. He asked him to take over his sermon. The fly fishing priest drove fifty miles to a river near the coast so that no one would recognize him.
An angel up in Heaven was keeping watch and saw what the priest was doing. He told God who agreed that he would do something about it.
With the first cast of his line a huge fish mouth gulped down the fly. For over an hour the priest ran up and down the river bank fighting the fish. At the end when he finally landed the monster size fish it turned out to be a world record Salmon.
Confused the angel asked God, “Why did you let him catch that huge fish? I thought you were going to teach him a lesson.
“God replied” I did. Who do you think he’s going to tell?”

One day a man came home and was greeted by his wife dressed in a lace nightie.
“Tie me up,” she purred, “and you can do anything you want.”
So, he tied her up and went fishing.
Pleasure is where you find it

Fishing rule 1: The least experienced fisherman always catches the biggest fish.
Fishing rule 2: The worse your line is tangled, the better the fishing is around you.
Fishing rule 3: Fishing will do a lot for a man but it won’t make him truthful.

License
A man and his buddy were fishing when the game warden came up and said, “Okay guys let’s see your licenses.”
The man dropped his fishing pole and started running. the warden was in hot pursuit. After a quarter of a mile the man stopped and let the warden catch him. “Okay now I’ve got ya,” said the warden.
“Got me what?” said the man.
“Fishing without a license, ” said the warden.
”Oh I have a fishing license.” said the man.
“Why did you run?” questioned the warden.
“It’s my buddy who didn’t have one.”
