Giant Trout or "slightly warm" Cattle Prod: who wins???
2 people are doing battle on a bridge, the loser is knocked into the manky waters of Amsterdam. Who wins???? Mind you the cattle prod is not heated
*disclaimer* to make it fair, the cattle prod is slightly warmed
discuss......

im gonna go with the giant trout.. you can get more force in the swing of a trout that you can in a cattle prod.

thats true.. but the weight of the giant trout means that once you get it moving, it's gonna be pretty fatal.

Cattle prod has to be heated of course, if not then the trout will emerge victorious cos of its massive striking power. However, a skilled prodder might be able to win by dodging the rather slow and heavy trout and prodding quickly and effectively.

true but maybe by the time you actually do get it moving u'll have been hit by the cattle prod enough times to knock you into the water...

Cattle Prod easily. Depending on how wide the bridge is, the momentum of the fish itself will probably carry the person who wields it off the bridge after a miss. Plus, you could stab the guy 2-3 times in the gut before he even gets the fish swinging.
I mean really, how hard would it be to dodge a fish attack?

the trout being a river fish needs to be aerodynamic to flow smoothly through swift currents, so tehcnically its not wide and therefore can be maneuvered quite easily

Ah so not as giant as I'm picturing. I'd still go with the prod.

It really all depends on the type of trout...
You have the slender but very ruthless river or brook trout (the one I'm using)
