The day after his wife disappeared in a kayaking accident, an Anchorage

man answered his door to find two grim-faced Alaska State Troopers.

"We're sorry

Mr. Wilkens, but we have some information concerning your wife," said

one trooper.

"Tell me! Did you find her?!" Wilkens shouted.

The troopers looked at each other. One said, "We have some bad news,

some good news, and some really great news. Which do you want to hear

first?"

Fearing the worst, an ashen Mr. Wilkens said, "Give me the bad news

first."

The trooper said, "I'm sorry to tell you, sir, but this morning we found

your wife's body in Kachemak Bay."

"Oh my God!" exclaimed Wilkens. Swallowing hard, he

asked, "What's the good news?"

The trooper continued, "When we pulled her up, she had 12 twenty-five

pound King crabs and 6 good-size Dungeness crabs clinging to her."

Stunned, Mr. Wilkens demanded, "If that's the good news, what's the

great news?"

The trooper said, "We're going to pull her up again tomorrow."

I quickly clicked on this thread since I'm a kayaker too and found a really funny joke. If I had time, I'd copy it to Texas kayak Fisherman. Good one.

waterspout,
I used to live up there and I remember that one with the exception of the kayak part. That's not one that's just made up for us down in the lower 48 or "outside" to Alaskans. That one's told locally and the way they like their seafood, I kinda beleive it may have it's roots in truth somewhere.
