There were battered fish everywhere.
Wife: why do dad's have the worst jokes?
Me: It's a rule, dads have to have cringy jokes
Wife: Who makes those rules?

Wife: groan

One’s a loathsome bottom feeder, and the other’s a fish.

Getting carp-al tunnel
Now that's what I call seizing the day.
Here's my go at a crappie pun:
Grillex was cooking us fish, but he dropped the bass.
he had a vowel movement...
Because he was a little fishy!
My mother freaks out whenever she hears him say that because she hates it and she's sick of it. I think it's hilarious.
A motor-pike and side-carp.
Rather worried, Noah said “But my Lord, have the people not been good this time? Must there be another flood?”
“No, there will not be a flood, the people have been good.” Said the Lord.
“Then why another ark?” Asked Noah.
“I wish for this ark to only house fish.” The Lord replied.
A slightly confused Noah responded “Okay... I shall do as you wish my Lord.”
“But not just any fish; only carp.” The Lord said unto him.
Noah, now more bemused, replied “Uh- okay my Lord.”
“One more thing.” The Lord said unto him “it needs to have multiple levels.”
“Are you sure my Lord? What is the purpose of this? What on earth is it all for?” Noah pressed.
And God said: “I want you to build a multi-story carp-ark.”
Passed from my father unto me, to pass onto my son when he becomes a father.
They use the good carp, bad carp method.
So it's been almost 3 weeks since a lockdown was triggered in the UK and there have been quite a few knock on effects.. Some good and some bad which I want to share in this post.
Firstly one of my friends lost his job. He worked as a psychic.. Never saw it coming. Its been a difficult couple of weeks and he is now considering a complete career change...considering becoming a baker of all things.. But I suppose he really kneads the dough. I suggested he focus on photography, but nothing ever developed.
Another of my friends was also made redundant. He managed to get a Skype interview for a position in Tescos within a few days. The interviewer asked him: "what is your biggest weakness?", he replied "I don't know when to quit". The interviewer said "OK, your hired". He said "I quit".
Work has been busy for me but since I can't enjoy the things I usually do I have been looking for some new things to do around the house. It's been nice have the thyme to do more cooking. I randomly started a boat building business in my garage.. Sails have gone through the roof.
In an unsettling reversal of my teenage years I am now shouting at my parents for leaving the house. I suggested they take up scrabble to keep them occupied.. Turned out to be a bad idea from the word go.
It's been great hearing about how world pollution levels have been failling. I read the story about fish now being visible in the canals in Venice.. I hope that story isnt a load of pollocks! Cod, these were eely bad. Will stop carping on now!
Gf: Why do fish always sing off-key?
Me: ... They don't know their scales?
GF: Good guess, but it's because you can't tuna fish.
Me: Oh, I mistook this for "Why are fish always perfectly pitched?" "Because they know their scales so well!"
GF: Yeah. You got that...

Seize Her Salad
Shame that this is neither the thyme nor the plaice...
Reporter goes to a brand new fish farm. The owner is showing her around. "These are our salmon, our trout are over there..." As the owner is speaking, reporter trips & her billfold falls into the nearest tank. It floats away, carried by the artificial current.
Reporter asks if the owner has a pool skimmer or something. Owner proudly says "No need, just watch - these fish are smart!"
Reporter watches as her billfold pops above the surface on the nose of a fish. The wallet is then tossed up, and another catches it.
This goes on until the last fish tosses the lost leather case into the reporter's hands. "That's amazing," she says.
Owner grins & says "Yep! We're proud of our carp-to-carp walleting!"

Drum and Bass...
I told her, "Sneeze the day."
I recently joined a CSF - a community supported fishery. Once a week, I'll pick up a filet of freshly-caught salmon, a bag of shellfish, or other such delights from the Pacific Ocean and bring it home to my darling wife and children to much joy (or anguish, depending on who you're asking.)
You get to choose your pick-up spot, and I chose a location close to my office, so I could swing by on the way home; it's a nautical-themed bar, appropriate for such a business transaction. "Go to the bartender and ask for the fish", say the instructions; so I did, and he handed me the catch of the day. Gleaming white filets, glorious they were. Then I met a friend of mine, and after chatting for a little while, I went home.
"Jack," says my wife, "what took you so long? You should have been home an hour ago!"
"Sorry," I said. "I stopped by the bar, just for the halibut."
I was telling my dad about my JAWS essay that is due in a couple of days and this is the conversation that followed.
Me: I'm writing out my JAWS essay.
Dad: Ok sounds a bit fishy.
Me:That's a terrible joke.
Dad: Hook line and sinker
ME: Stahp. I can't handle the dad jokes anymore.
Dad: Holy mackerel he's growing up
Me: You seriously can't make anymore up.
Dad: I'm having a whale of a time.
Me: Really?
Dad: Yes

Carp diem!
At the carp park of course!
2 fishermen are fishing. One of them drops his wallet and a carp jumps up and grabs it, then passes it to another carp.
The other fisherman says:

(Friend and I came up with these on the ride down to Boston for a concert, after the “I wonder what Chris Pine smells like?” joke was brought up again from a previous time hanging out. I’m particularly proud of Bob Moss and Zoey Salad-ana.)
"I apologise sincerely, sir," he replied.
I said, "No need. It's the carp."
Salmon once told me that if you can carry a tuna you can be a star - fish aside, it's best not to have a weight and sea approach. Start to give a carp about your jib, carefullly line up your ducks in a roe and when the opportunity comes you'll be reeling! Always remember to never do anything just for the Halibut!
Carp EDM
I always say "sieze the carp" because I'm hilarious. Sent my mom the following text, letting her know I was out because it was such a nice day:
>Me: Playing disc golf.
>Mom: :). K
>Me: Figured I'd size the carp while I could.
>Mom: That's a Diem good idea
Dad and I went fishing for the first time in a while at a nearby pond. Suddenly he starts screaming about something and I ask him what was wrong, and he replies: kelp, kelp, call the carps!
