Blackville is home to Canada’s largest fish hook. The Veteran’s Fly was conceptualized by Hugh Hallihan in 2005, the Year of the Veteran. The fishing fly, designed by Jenna Tucker, a former student at Blackville School, was constructed by Mr. Hallihan and painted by area resident Paul Stephens.

Each colour, has a symbolic meaning to veterans: purple represents sorrow for the fallen soldiers; red and white for the Canadian flag; green for a soldier’s uniform; gold for the medals awarded to a soldier; red for the petals of a poppy and black for the centre of a poppy.

A small container with a log sheet. Bring your own writing stick.

Congrats to CoopB and wsnapo for FTF
