After a day's fishing on Lake Michigan，a fisherman is walking from the pier carrying two brown trout in a bucket。He is approached by a Conservation Officer who asks him for his fishing license。
The fisherman says to the warden，“I am not fishing and I do not catch these browns，they are my pets。Every day I come down to the water and dump these fish into the water and take them for a walk to the end of the pier and back。When I'm ready to go I whistle and they jump back into the bucket and we go home。”The officer not believing him，reminds him that it is illegal to fish without a license。
The fisherman turns to the warden and says，“If you don't believe me then watch。”as he throws the trout back into the water。
The warden says，“Now whistle to your fish and show me that they will jump out of the water and into the bucket。”
The fisherman turns to the officer and says，“What fish？”
一位渔夫在密歇根湖钓了一天鱼后，从码头走来，手里提着两条褐鲑鱼放在水桶里。一位保护区人员走进他，要求检查他的钓鱼执照。
这位渔夫对管理员说到，“我没有钓鱼，我也没有捕获这些褐鲑鱼，它们是我的宠物。我每天都下到水里，然后把这些鱼扔进水里，带着它们散步，一直走到码头尽头再返回。当我准备要离开的时候，我会向它们吹口哨，它们就会跳回到水桶里，然后我们一起回家。”这位管理员不相信他，提醒他没有钓鱼执照钓鱼是违法的。
这位渔夫转向管理员说到，“如果你不相信我，那么请看好，”说完他把褐鲑鱼扔进了湖水里。
管理员说到“那么现在你向你的鱼吹口哨吧，让我瞧瞧它们是怎么从水里跳出来然后跳进你的水桶里的。”
渔夫转向管理员说到，“什么鱼？”
