Three blondes are sitting by the side of a river holding fishing poles with the lines in the water. A Game Warden comes up behind them, taps one of them on the shoulder and says, "Excuse me, ladies, I'd like to see your fishing licenses."
"We don't have any." replied the first blonde.
"Well,if your going to fish, you need fishing licenses." said the Game Warden.
"But officer," replied the second blonde, "we aren't fishing. We all have magnets at the end of our lines and we're collecting debris off the bottom of the river."
The Game Warden lifted up all the lines and, sure enough, there were horseshoe magnets tied on the end of each line.
"Well, I know of no law against it," said the Game Warden, "take all the debris you want." And with that, the Game Warden left.
As soon as the Game Warden was out of sight, the three blondes started laughing hysterically. "What a dumb Fish Cop," the second blonde said to the other two, "doesn't he know that there are steelhead in this river?!

steelheads, what do they have to do w/ magnets? I don't get it. JK   This doesn't have anything to do w/ this, but I was stopped for my liscence only 3 times last year & was skunked all 3 times. Once @ Brainard (on hwy 7, between Nederland & Estes Park), Boulder Resevoir, & Pinewood. I had never fished Boulder before, but I always have luck @ Pinewood & Brainard. I think this year I'll just pack up after showing my licsence.

You wouldn't by chance be a blonde, would you James? LOL...LOL!!!! sorry. I could not resist that.

 

[James]

no, well, mabe a darker blond, but I have a question that may make you think otherwise.     When you say Union is closed, doesn that mean to cars & you could walk in, or that no fishing is alowed until March? I fish Dowdy (Red Feathers), and although the campground & the gate is closed, you can still walk in & fish. Just so I don't sound too stupid, I've never been to Union before. My buddy lives in Longmont, and we've been fishing Barbor Ponds after work. We were going to try Union next monday, so if it is closed, I guess you saved us a trip.

I am pretty sure Union doesnt close. However, there is a $5 daily entry fee at Union Reservoir Park, and if you bring your boat it's another $5.
To make sure it isnt closed call John Brim at Union Reservoir Park (303-772-1265).

???All i know is that i did call them, at the reservoir at 303-772-1265. One of the rangers or someone that answered, told me they were closed to fishing until March 1.

You obviously like funny fishing jokes so here's one i found last night.

A woman goes into Wal-Mart to buy a rod and reel. She doesn't know which one to get so she just grabs one and goes over to the register.

There is a Wa-Mart "Associate" standing there wearing very dark sunglasses. The woman says, "Excuse me sir, can you tell me anything about this rod and reel?"

The man at the register says to her, " Ma'am", I am blind, but if you will drop it onto the counter I can tell you everything that you need to know about it from the sound that it makes."

Of course she didn't believe him, but dropped the rod and reel onto the counter anyway. He said to her, " That's a 6' graphite rod with a Zebco 202 reel and 10 lb. test line...It's a good all around rod and reel and it is $20.00.

The woman said, "That's amazing that you can tell all of that just from the sound of it dropping to the counter!" "I think It's what I'm looking for so I will take it."

The man walked behind the counter to the register, and in the meantime the woman breaks wind Big-time.

At first she is embarrassed, but then remembers that there is no way he tell she did it...he was blind and he would not know that she was not the only person around.

He rings up the sale and says to her, "That will be $25.50.

She said, "But didn't you say that it was $20.00?"

He says to her, "Yes Ma-am, the rod and reel are $20.00. But the duck call is $3.00 and the catfish stink bait is $2.50."


I laughed so hard when i read that one!

  that's not right, wall mart, gas, and the blind for god's sake! That's wrong, but I'm sure I'll tell a few people tommarow!    Anyway, thanks for the info. It sounds like either way, I'll be able to check it (Union) out soon. Epic, nice Minn. pics. I loved the canoe one. Koni, I'm sorry there aren't any women specific sites. Just so you don't feel bad, here's the type of stuff you'd be missing out on.        It was sooooo cold today (65),                 We stayed at the lake forever!!!!!! (an hour and a half),      We had to get up waaay to early (same time you'd get up for work),          My outfit got sooooo dirty!!!! and then it would just turn into where to get a new outfit.  Just Kidding                                                                         

 

[epic]

hehe I liked that one, so did my girlfirend!! She also thought james' joke was funny to.

 

[koni]

Im begining to wish i had not posted that thread on women fishermen, or fisherwomen. Whatever we are. Ha! Your pretty funny James...great sense of humor. ;D

 

[andyrm66]

Union is closed till the 1st. Dont waste your time till then, I live up here and been waiting for it to open up.

A man was standing next to the river with a bucketfull of fish. The ranger came up and asked,

"May I see your fishing license, Sir?"

"Oh, Im not fishing." He responds calmly. "I'm taking my pet fish for a swim. You see every morning I come here with my fish and let them swim around. After a while I whistle and the fish swim right back into the bucket."

"I have heard a lot of fish stories, Mister..." The Ranger said sternly. "But there is no way these trout are your pets. I'll remind you that taking fish illegally is a serious crime."

"Here, I will prove it." The man said who then tipped over the bucket and let the fish swim away.

"Now whistle and try bring the fish back." The Ranger said with a doubtful smirk on his face.

"What fish?" the man said quickly. "I don't see any fish."
