Synopsis
It's fishing season! Ranger Woodlore attempts to keep Humphrey the bear from fishing, with the human fisherman telling him to "go fish like a bear." Ranger Woodlore is stocking the lake, much to Humphrey's delight as he tries to intercept a meal intended for the anglers. Humphrey keeps looking for an easier way, but his attempts only end in disaster. Before he knows it, fishing season is over, and bear hunting season is beginning.

Reviews
Hooked Bear
This is one of my favorite disney shorts,it even had an opening theme that was used for "El Gaucho Goofy", "Morris The Midget Moose" and it was also used on the Walt Disney Cartoon Classic videos released in the early and late 1980's(allthough in the Late 1980's the music was different)when i was a little kid i saw this short on "Donald's Quack Attack" the ending was deleted,the Ranger says "Fishing season is over" then changes the sign to "Hunting Season Now Open"and then hunters start to chase humphery with there guns as the cartoon closes,so that was the scene that was snipped out.
