Candidates went Ice Fishing??


Recommended Posts

The Presidential election was too close to call. Neither the Republican

candidate nor the Democratic candidate had enough votes to win. There was

much talk about ballot recounting, court challenges, etc., but a

week-long ice fishing competition seemed the sportsmanlike way to settle

things. The candidate that caught the most fish at the end of the week would

win the election.

Therefore, it was decided that there should be an ice fishing contest

between the two candidates to determine the winner.

After much of back and forth discussion, it was decided that the contest

take place on a remote frozen lake in northern Minnesota ..

There were to be no observers present, and both men were to be sent out

separately on this isolated lake and return at 5 P.M. with their catch for

counting and verification by a team of neutral parties. At the end of the

first day, John Mc. returned to the starting line and he had ten fish.

Soon, Obama returned and had no fish. Well, everyone assumed he was just

having another 'bad hair' day or something and hopefully, he would catch up

the next day.

At the end of the 2nd day John Mc. came in with 20 fish and Obama came in

again with none.

That evening, Harry Reid got together secretly with Obama and said, 'Obama,

I think John Mc. is a low-life, cheatin' son-of-a-gun. I want you to go out

tomorrow and don't even bother with fishing. Just spy on him and see just

how he is cheating.'

The next night (after John Mc. returns with 50 fish), Harry said to Obama,

'Well, tell me, how is John Mc. cheating?'

Obama replied, 'Harry, you're not going to believe this, but he's cutting

holes in the ice.'

Experience Counts!

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
