Creative angler tries fishing for bank deposit bag at drop-slot

Bank employees told police that when they retrieved the night deposit bags from last Thursday's drops, they discovered one bag sported a fishing hook. Some fishing line dangled from the hook. (Times-Democrat)

The guy is at home telling about the one that got away.

YES!
10 points for ingenuity!
He would have been pissed if it would have worked, only to find checks and EFT slips. Hahahaha!

He's probably an accomplished buzz fisherman.

obviously needs to go with some stronger fishing line

He is using the wrong bait, too.

Hmph!!

Here in WI, in winter we use an ice auger for that.

Hey RMM, whar ya bin hidin'?

The Fish & Game commission is also going to bust him for not having a fishing license.

I have been out of town for a very loud, boisterous memorial and wake due to a death in the family (think Irish); and then trying to get caught up from being gone. But I'm back, much to the dismay of a few here, I would imagine :)

Not me!
Irish condolences. Tipping one now to the departed.

I missed your amusing comments, too, RMM. Condolences.

[RockyMtnMac]

Thanks! Glad to be done with it all.
Irish families should not lose relatives so near to St Patricks Day... (sorry, liver!)

I bet the wheels inside Ron Popeil's head are already spinning. How about a new version of the Popeil Pocket Fisherman adapted for bank bags and deposit chutes.

But wait there's more...
