Lifelong buddies, Sven Svensen & Ole Olsen, put up with Lars Larsen because his dad has a cool ice-fishing house. Eelpout takes place on the drunken morning of Ole's ice-fishing bachelor party when Sven admits to Ole that he doesn't want to be his best man. Ole responds to Sven with a shocking, sensual kiss, setting their futures adrift into uncertain waters. Meanwhile, Lars falls for Ole's sister, a talking fish joins the party, and Sven is swept away into a fish orgy dream ballet.
Paul Kruse offers as bait a fast-paced farce about midwestern masculinity. In this funny fever-dream friends are lovers, fish can talk, and life's mysteries beckon from the bottom of a frozen lake.
