    That looks a like a young Chris Yates who won the rod at the end, but he would have only been 15 if this is 1963? Impressive beard for a 15 year old!

    These are called banksticks. The part at the top of a bankstick, that supports the rod, is known as a rod rest!

    I wish there were more condescending videos about fishing today. We could use a decrease in the number of people enjoying this "silly sport."

    I wish there were a decrease in silly idiots commenting on a pastime /sport / lifestyle/ passion / obsession/ livelihood/ conservation movement / lifetime mental health aid and way of life they know absolutely nothing about. That’s just silly.
