Three good friends,(JACK, IDDEE and RIVERRAT) decide to meet up and go fishing on a river in wisconsin, the BRULE river.
Sitting on the bank of the river, the three are swapping stories back and forth, catching up, having a good time, fishing rods in hand, lines in the river. Wisconsin DNR warden comes along from behind them and says, "okay boys need to see your licenses".
Jack says 'we don't need no license'. Iddee elbows Jack, says "ssssshhh" and Riverrat pipes up and says "We don't have any licenses." Iddee elbows Riverrat.
Wisconsin DNR warden say's "Well if your fishing, you need fishing licenses."
Iddee pipes up and says "Officer, we aren't fishing. All three of us, me and my buddies here have magnets at the end of our lines and we are collecting debris off the bottom of the river".
So the Wisconsin DNR game warden made Jack, Iddee and Riverrat lift their lines out of the water.
Sure enough, the warden finds nothing but horseshoe magnets tied to the end of each of their lines.
Game warden scratches his head after studying the horseshoe magnets and says to the three "Well, i know of no law against this, take all the debris you want."
dnr game warden wanders off and leaves.
As soon as the game warden was out of sight, Jack pipes up and says, "What a dumb fish cop, doesn't he know there are STEELHEAD trout in this river?"
