- A Fish Story by Ray Mahar and Terry Tennier - August 2002.
While at CFB Lowther 37 years or so ago. Terry and I were fishing on the Opasatika River, South of Lowther. We caught a ton of pickerel, unfortunately according to the Game Wardens "too many". I also caught with great skill I might add a 31.5 pound pike. Because we had over fished the pickerel the wardens also seized my pike. We both paid our fines etc, I cried and thought it was gone forever. But, I later learned "Sneaky Terry" had claimed the Pike as his. Over the years I requested at least a picture of the fish that I feared he was claiming as his. As you can see, he finely came clean at this years reunion and admitted it was indeed caught by "ME" and to my utter surprise presented the mounted fish to me.

- Murray Glanville came all the way from Langley, BC - August 2002.
He doesn't seem too disappointed about displaying his allergy card at the banquet. There were plenty of good friends and
good times to make up for the alternate menu.
