the fish man, he's a nice guy and normally polite. But then they all are now paying out as they have replicated your bet bigger on BF so can't lose.
Think he was happier 20 years ago on the other side |

if it really is him there was a good documentary featuring him a while back.

By:
yes it is Roger. He appears on lots of food programmes and was a regular on such popular shows as Market Kitchen and even was a regular guest on XFM's breakfast show with Fish Of The Week, or something.
Doesnt really need to make any money from the book as made plenty out of fish. amongst other things Id imagine. Never liked a Payne gamble- lol. |

Near a highway bridge several boats were scattered about in the lake as there was the Annual Bass Catchers Classic fishing tournament in progress, when a funeral procession came by on the bridge. Everybody just kept on fishing except for one fisherman, who put his fishing pole down, stood up, removed his hat and remained in that fashion until the funeral procession was passed. A nearby fisherman happened to see this and was impressed at how respectful the man had been, so he cranked up his boat and pulled up beside the other mans boat. "Howdy, I saw how considerate you were toward that funeral procession, pausing and standing like that. I wish I had been as thoughtful"
The other man replied, "I reckon it's the least I could do. After all, we'd been married for nearly 30 years." |

An Irish priest loved to fly fish. It was an obsession, but so far this year the weather had been so bad that he had not had a chance to get his beloved wadders on and his favourite flies out of their box. Strangly though every Sunday the weather had been good, but of course Sunday is the day he has to go to work. The weather forcast was again good for the coming Sunday so he called a fellow priest cliaming to have lost his voice and in bed with the flu. He asked if he could take over his sermon.
The fly fishing priest drove fifty miles to a river near the coast so that no one would recognise him. An angel up in Heaven was keeping watch and saw what the priest was doing. He informed God who agreed that he should do something. 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 is going to tell?" |
