    [spoiler]The clues do not expressly say that anyone owns a fish but, assuming someone does, it'd have to be the German. Yellow / Norwegian / Cats / Water / Dunhill Blue / Dane / Horses / Tea / Blends Red / Brit / Birds / Milk / Pall Mall Green / German / [b][u]fish[/u][/b] / Coffee / Prince White / Swede / Dog / Beer / BlueMaster[/spoiler] I'll admit I used a spreadsheet to help me organize the clues. In all honesty the reason I think 98% of people "can't" solve the riddle is due to a lack of motivation.
