To honor the generations of Boomers who've fished waters in search of prizes large and small, this puzzle is angling for the names of fish. As simple as shooting fish in a barrel you ask...goodness no, fishing is never easy and you'll find many of these are not common fish for sure. However, given there is wordplay or trickery afoot with many of these fish, you'll catch them eventually once you take their name's sake into account laugh

Each clue strives to help you in your quest so pay attention as the pun will nibble and the play with words will direct your final catch. Don't fret as some fish allude your line, just be patient and work with the number of letters at the end of each clue to help you catch them all. But if you look close there is one easy catch wink

Example: This fish is a heavenly body <8> --> starfish



- 1. What fish can perform on ice? <5>
- 2. What fish sits on an elevated bar? <5>
- 3. What fish is the central body of the solar system? <7>
- 4. What fish is an easy flimflam victim? <6>
- 5. What fish likes to complain? <4>
- 6. What fish is half of a tollgate road? <4>
- 7. What fish is used in fencing? <5>
- 8. What fish is a carpenter's tool? <7>
- 9. What fish should really rule the sea? <8>
- 10. What fish is a heavenly body? <8>
- 11. What fish is quite bovine? <7>
- 12. What fish applies with short pokes? <3>

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.

Never explains what exactly you did to deserve that coal in
your stocking; if you have to ask, maybe that's the problem!
