I'm 77 1/2 years old and my Mom and Dad were bass fishermen so I'm guessing 73 years.....I can remember having my own rod and reel which was a Shakespeare wondereel and montague steel rod and I was probably 7-8 years old....those were not free spool reels and I'm sure I picked a lot of backlashes out til my thumb got "educated"... Chunkin for 45 years, I inherited my Grandad's wonder reel and Montague rod    great picture...thanks for posting...brings back memories of Dalton Specials,injured minnows,lucky 13's,Heddon chuggers and Shakespeare darters....

I've got pictures of my mom holding me when I was six weeks old at a fishing campsite where my dad and other family camped every weekend.
Don't know exactly how old I was when I caught my first fish but I do remember catching a lot of sunfish with a cane pole and a box of worms, and also catching crawdads using bacon.....I turned 70 in February!
Just one more cast!

Never tried slamming a revolving door.
