The Fisherman whose treasure chest is his bounty of fish

His tales are the elusive fish
The gems that got away
The diamonds and the rubies
Within his grasp each day

A simple hat upon his head
Reveals the tell-tale hook [s]
Thecaptain of all fishermen
Is claimed within his look [s]

A tackle box with flies and lures
The finest in the land
The ultimate in fishing rods
Are held within each hand

The fisherman's a pirate
Who's out to claim his gold
The bounty of his harvest
Lies with secrets left untold

The ship that was his vessel
Is known now as RV
That searches for a treasure chest
Upon landlubber's sea

The mysteries on X drawn maps
Will never be revealed
He'd rather walk upon the plank
To keep the sites concealed

No matter what the consequence
He always will endure
Crossbones of fish that mark the flag
Are pirates of the lure
