Hahaha! The story is written perfectly, but what makes it hilarious, is the drawing. Sure, everyone will believe John...isn't an artist. This is listed as fiction, but could easily have happened. Best wishes in the contest.

It doesn't matter who this author is -- the laugh I got as soon as I walked into the door from work, earns a 6 from me! Great fun and we all need an opportunity to laugh some time. Good job and good luck in the contest.

This is too funny. Of course no one will believe it based on his drawing, lol! One of those "big ones that just got away" stories.

Clever short story, 100 words is a tough challenge but you did a great job. Good luck.

Well, the guy tried. Next time he goes fishing, he needs to be prepared. I enjoyed reading your post. This was a great humorous poem. This is a classic. I had my daughter look at the picture, and she laughed her head off.

This is a great story of Johnny's dilemma. How to show off his amazing catch. His solution was less than ingenious. But I loved it all the same. This tale made me laugh.

Haha, and I saw a UFO, I drew a picture, and no one
believed me. Your contest entry was fun to read,
Mystery Author. I know the post you referred to in
the notes. Your words flow smoothly with great
imagery.
Best wishes, Jan

Haha... Yeah, right. Artists lie as often as fishermen, probably more so. He'd better not sign his picture and date it. Cool story about how fanatical fishermen get - fishing out of season is a no-no.

Dear Mystery Fisherman,

This was a fun little tale with a superb piece of artwork. I had to stop my youngest granddaughter as she went past to show it to her. Okay, she laughed - just a little. Otherwise, I think John's idea is BRILLIANT. With this kind of evidence, who can argue??!! Smart guy!

Fun post! Thanks and good luck!
