For some strange reason, I never expect those people in the entertainment or sports business to ever age or suffer the same infirmities as the rest of us. It always comes as a shock when one of my heroes passes, and Curt has certainly qualified as one of my heroes.

He passed his love of hunting and fishing on to his sons....and to millions of his viewers and admirers. That's not a bad epitaph!

I'll miss him.

Get 'em, Curt!

Yea remember when it was about the only show on hunting and fishing back then.To this day i cant think of anything on telavision that could catch my interest like that.It was so rare now day's you can watch it all weekend long.

He will be missed and was a pioneer in his industry
