That's Gadabout Gaddis, "The Flying Fisherman"! His may have been the very first TV fishing show.
Ok your age is showing! We use run home from fishing to watch that on Saturday mornings, think I was about 10 at the time.Quote:

Watched his shows. Had a place in Bingham Maine but I don't think he was from Maine
I've still got one of those old Shakespeare fly rods somewhere around here.
