Doesn't sound like it would make them much good for consumption, either.

I hear it's a lot better, actually. They're dead before they know what hit them, no fear poisons released into the flesh ... more humane too, no struggling against the hook and all that.

Of course, you end up with extra.

Boudreaux & the Game Warden Go Fishing

This Louisiana game warden had been keeping an eye on the fishing docks, when after about a week he noticed that Boudreaux had been coming back every day with a boat full of fish. One day he starts to talk to Boudreaux as he's pulling his boat in. The warden says,'Boudreaux, I been watchin you. I notice every day dat you been comin' in wid a full load of fish. You must be havin some good luck? Eh?" Boudreaux answers, "May yah, dem fish is easy to catch." The game warden replies, "Well listen. I got me a day off comin next Saturday. I was wondring, maybe I could go an fish wid you?" Boudreaux replies, "May dat be no problem. Jus make shore you be here at dat 6 a.m. sharp. Cause I gonna leave dis dock wid or widout you." "May I'll be here, don't chu worry none about dat" answers the warden.
Saturday comes and the game warden is waiting at the dock when Boudreaux pulls up and puts his boat in the water. The game warden gets in and Boudreaux proceeds to drive the boat out to the middle of the lake. At this point, Boudreaux shuts off the engine and lets the boat glide to a stop. The game warden, who'd been curious anyway, says to Boudreaux, "May Boudreaux, I been lookin aroun dis boat, and I notice dat all you don brought was dis here ice-chest and dat little brown paper bag under your seat. May, you don't even got no fishin pole." Boudreaux answers, "May, dat be because dats all I need" And he proceeds to pull a stick of dynamite out of the brown paper bag, lights it, thows it in the water and watches it go boooom! All the fish in the area, being stunned, float to the top of the water.

The warden, by this time, can't believe his eyes. Half yelling, he says to Boudreaux, "May Boudreaux, I know we been knowin each udder for a long time, but man, you can't be doing dat, especially wid me being a game warden n all. May, dat's agin de law in a big way dat is." Boudreaux, without say a word, calmly reaches down into the bag (with the warden still rattling off), pulls out a stick, lights it, hands it to the warden and says, "You gonna talk, or you gonna fish?"

I'm guessing Elspode was referring to the poison pill, rather than the TNT....

Yes, I was...but strangely, I considered telling the exact same joke that Buster did, but decided everyone had probably already heard it.

Stop that! :biglaugha

yes, it does. peopel remove fishs' viscera as fast as they can, so they not fear the poison release into the fish. it is still good for consumption.
This action always means fatal destruction for fish. fortunately, it has been forbided by the local government :thumbsup:

Mmm... "Poison, poison, poison, tasty fish!"

That's a good idea in that the poison kills much more than the fish you want.
BTW- welcome to the Cellar, Eric. :)

If the people know what the fishes died from, they will be told if they are good for consumption or not....i hope! Otherwise they will see it as a great oppurtunity to get those fishsticks!
