for the fish that would not bite quite

While fishing one day, dressed in oilskins
and a SLOUGH hat, he was addressed by
an angler CARRIED in the height of pis-
catorial fashion with:
Hello. boaJnan! You've certainly got
good catch. What will you take for
the fish?"
I'm not selling them" replied the man
in olsliins.
