When I was a young boy my parents and I used to go fishing in Dauphin River from Wpg. This was in the 70's and a trip like that for a kid was like going to India...man that was far! The first time was a fishing trip I will never forget...it was great. Mr Hunter was such a great person...easy going and very helpful. Mr. Hunter even took me for a tour of the hatchery...and let me take a boat by myself....I would just like to say he took the time to show a kid a few things...ty Hugh...Rest well! - Posted by: Miles Ducharme (Friend) on: Apr 20, 2014

We are thinking of you all, but, we're sure Hugh was ready to rest... Caring thoughts to you all. Sincerely Ron & Janet - Posted by: Ron McCurdy & Janet (Long time aquaintance) on: Apr 17, 2014
