Episode from "Out of Town" in 1981 - 100-year Old Angler

[Ed_D]

All.
I found an episode of the old, British TV show "Out of Town" with Jack Hargreaves. It shows an angler out on his 100th birthday in 1981. I am guessing that his fly rod was made of Calcutta cane. It might be of interest to some. The clip is about 14 minutes long.

He might have needed a little help but since there's little chance I'll be around for 100 I am happy to see him out there. Wish he'd have hooked his own fish instead of just taking over the rods.

There is nothing like the feeling of the wiggle in the rod. I'm glad he had a chance to feel it again.
