In 1956 Garcia; the exclusive North American distributor for ABU made three 16mm sound demonstration films to teach people how to use an Ambassadeur 5000 bait caster, a Mitchell 300 spinning reel and how to fly fish. The instructor in this film is Johnny Dieckman, the World Casting Champion! These amazing 16mm films were recently found and have been converter to video and now were showing them to the world. These three are just the start, much more to come!!!

For real, this music is so 1950...this is the shizzy music we had to watch during those 2nd grade films back in the day.

@lukkbox thats what your wrist looks like if your not fat. 

[horvathluke]

@lukkbox its his bone

[tacokiller101]

[xchronic88]

@lukkbox hahahah noooo! its not a growth. watch it again. its the butt of the rod and rod handle.

[tbone007princess]

@FishingFilmHistory I think he just has a bony wrist. I have small bony wrists as well and i have been bending my hand like his is, and i honestly think it is just the wrist bone, not a growth.
