After being either muggled or thrown around in recent storm, A Fish Out of Water is back in action with a temporary container. I will work on trying to restore it to exactly how it was, but in the meantime, good luck!!



A Fisherman’s Lies (Exaggerations)

In the Land of 10,000 Lakes, many fishermen are full of stories of
their giants who got away. If they were the only ones who saw the
fish, are we expected to take their word for the size? Of course not.
So how do you know if they’re lying? Or better yet, how do
you know how much they are lying?


Northern Pike

A fisherman will tell 191% of actual size.




Walleye
some_text
A fisherman will tell 116% of actual size.





If a fisherman says, “I caught a monster Northern Pike
that was 46.87".” How big was it really?
(round to the nearest hundredth)


If a fisherman says, “I caught a monster Walleye that
was 45.18".” How big was it really?
(to the hundredth)


Congratulations to Hal-oween & Pippin and Merry for FTF!
