Picture of me and my older brother wetting a line about 50 years ago at Cook's pond in Georgia. I really have not changed much, at least in fishing ability.

That looks like a Martin automatic fly reel ..... had a bunch of fun with one of those.
Dig that footwear too man!

Screen grab from a digitized 8mm movie from the 60s. Guess which one is me?

People ask us why we fish. Pictures like yours help answer that question.

Steve, right you are. My brother and I have fished together our entire lives, even though we live 400+ miles apart now, we still get together at least once a year for a fishing trip.

Speaking of which, Steve we need to get together for some time on the water. I have not been out much, have had a pinched nerve in my neck that has limited what I can do, but seems to be getting a little better. Also have been out of town some, my mother passed away on June 1st. Will be spending the beginning of July trying to sort out the house to get it on the market and other things. But late July on, I plan on fly fishing for big drum with a vengeance. Have been going through a bunch of old slides, more throw back pictures to come.

So sorry for your loss

Same here, so sorry to hear about your loss.
The pinched nerve in the neck must be getting around. I am wearing an ice bag on my neck presently for the same reason, I hope it gets better, or if not, that will mean another trip back to the doctor. Old age ain't for sissies.
