Required:
2 scouts
Script:
(one scout is sitting on the bank of a stream or lake, fishing the day away. The game warden walks up.)
Warden: Hey, there! Didn't you see this NO FISHING sign? (points to pretend sign)
Fisherman: Why, yes sir, mister warden sir, I did. And, I am not fishing.
Warden: What?!? You have a fishing pole with a worm on the end of the line. You ARE fishing!
Fisherman: Oh, no sir! I'm teaching my pet worm to swim!
Warden: OK, then. What about this bucket of fish here. There's 3 nice ones swimming around in it. You must have caught them! I'm putting you under arrest!
Fisherman: Oh, no sir! Those are my pet fish. I've trained them to come when I call them.
Warden: No way! Fish aren't smart enough to do that.
Fisherman: Here, I'll prove it if you want me to.
Warden: OK, prove it.
(fisherman picks up bucket and talks to fish.)
Fisherman: Hey, Bubbles. Good fishy, Puddles. Awww, that's a good boy, Flipper. Now, I need you to show the nice officer how well trained you are. When I whistle, you all come back now, you hear? Good fish! OK, here we go...
(pretends to toss the fish out of the bucket into the lake and sets down on the bucket.)
(after a pause of 10 seconds, the Warden gets suspicious.)
Warden: Well, go ahead and whistle for your fish.
Fisherman: What fish?
Warden: Hey, there! Didn't you see this NO FISHING sign? (points to pretend sign)

'Liked the earthy humor. Though I was never a Scout my brother was. Back in "61 our
folks & I visited his local Scout camp. I was taken aback by the latrine, the non-flush
toilets were only enclosed from the elements! Its floor was a couple of feet above
ground, I guess to remove & empty the receptacles under the holes?
