Good topic guys. Yes we must stop and look at these numbers, our intake may decrease!!!! @mick .. Yup was on the old chair watching also "Scuttle Butt Lodge" was the place to be, spent many hours watching the show.. RED...
A little story on Red Fisher. In the early 70s my late father-in-law was buying a new Wilker boat at the dealer in London and they had a draw on for a week fly-in fishing trip with Red Fisher to God's Lake in northern Manitoba. He was excited about his new boat so wasn't interested in filling out the draw card so I filled one out for him along with mine and put it in the box. Well he won the trip then was reluctant about going because he was terrified of flying. We all talked him into it and finally got him to the airport. They did a TV show on it with my father-in-law sitting along side Red at Scuttle Butt Lodge. The video showed him in the bush plane with eyes as big as saucers and Red got a dig in that it took 2 days for them to clean the plane out. He caught over 600 fish that week but he and Red were butting heads all week because both of them were so much alike. Both were full of themselves, tend to brag, were bone headed and stubborn as a mule. We all got kick out of it watching them on the TV show still butting heads through the whole segment. My father-in-law said it was great fishing trip but Red was a total stick head!
