Well, without looking it up that "come to a resolution" was what I
took it to mean.[1] I think "Shit or get off the pot" is a more vulgar
variation.  ;-)

And looking through the web, I found
http://www.shu.ac.uk/web-admin/phrases/bulletin_board/2/messages/15.html,
which also mentions "Make a choice now; either fish or cut bait and go
home."
