In The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #947 from the issue of June 9, 2025, a fish is caught by an angler's hook and is pulled out of the water. The fisherman prepares to lower it into a net as the fish either takes a selfie with the man in the boat or looks at its phone. The fish speaks, naturally. My entry appears below. The drawing is by Kaamran Hafeez.
