Plot
Porky Pig is going fishing. 2 worms begin to follow him and hop into his can used for holding worms. Porky’s boat then speeds up really fast, and he gets scared. He crashes into a boat where a group of men are eating on a long table, and Porky ends up splitting it in 2.
Porky’s boat, while still speeding, speeds into the water, until shooting out and starting to spin. He then spits out a fish and starts fishing.
Underwater, a fish tries to fish Porky, with a Donut as bait. The Fish captures Porky, and we are then introduced to the Fish’s wife and 2 kids. The Fish undresses Porky and tries to cook him, but he escapes and the credits roll.
Availability

The original evidence of its existence was a website which covers different redrawn cartoon shorts and screenshots of the short.[1]

Then on July 20th, 2023, long-time Lost Media Wiki user YoshiKiller2S discovered a higher-quality Cartoon Network recording of the redrawn colorized version from a "massive MEGA folder full of Looney Tunes shorts."[2]
