Chris Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Hi, I've seen a similar post in the past and thought it was cool seeing everyone's old fishing pics. Here's a few pics from the past. This is my dad on the right and my Uncle Mike with some Lake Nippissing walleye in 1960 This is my grandmother, probably on the St. Lawrence with what appears to be a small pike or muskie. The date on the back of the picture is 1949 I don't have any info on this picture, but it appears to be my Uncle Stuart. It was in with the other pics from 1949 so I'm assuming it's from that era, and probably taken in Cornwall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted November 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Nice pics. Thanks! The beer bottles stump me since I thought stubbies were around till the 70's. Thanks guys. Cisco, if you look closely those are the old quart bottles. Lew, I learned to fish using an old extra long bamboo pole similar to the one in the pic.

Rattletrap2 Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Good eye there Cisco! I was going to say, that North Bay was the only place I ever saw those "Quart" bottles. Why is that anyhow? I saw them there in the 80's, but no where else to my knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

setomonkey Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 I really like the old pics, maybe because my parents didn't fish and I only started fishing as an adult (so I don't have the same history as a lot of OFNers do).
