Minnow pilots

About 20 years ago or more there was an article in Canadian Aviation by a pilot who worked in northwestern Ontario hauling minnows. He would fly to remote lakes, set traps and then return and pick up the fish which he would fly back to base. The company he worked for was a live bait wholesaler. I seem to recall he was flying a Supercub or a similar plane. I wonder if this type of business still exists.

Hi guys,

I'd be interested to read the article if it's available anywhere. Or indeed to know whether people do this Minnow hauling.

Cheers
Matt
