Got a riddle for 'ya.
OK, I'm pretty sure somebody's gonna know this one, but here goes. A man has a duck, a fox, and a bag of corn that he has to get to the other side of the river. His boat can only carry himself and one of the three. If left alone, the fox would eat the duck and the duck would eat the corn. How does he get them all across safely?

Put the duck in the boat and bring him to the other side, than go back and pick up the fox and bring him to the other side but bring the duck back across with you than leave him on the side he started on while bringing the corn to the other side than go back and pick the duck back up and bring him back to the other side.

Why not strap the corn to the duck and then tie the duck to the boat and put the fox in the boat to growl at the duck and make 'em swim and pull the boat?

Good "riddle" but I heard it a loooong time ago, in school. Thanks for reminding me. I'll have to ask my granddaughters that one. Keep 'em comin'. Anybody got an idea when the stripers hit the Nolichuckey River in TN ?

Keepin' it reel - Around here (east TN) the stripers run about the same time as the dogwood trees bloom, which is soon. My boat has a chant that I can hear. It says,"Wet me. Wet me." It's been too dry too long. Happy fishn', grill 1 for me.
