Vintage Chum - 50's Striper Style

From Dr. Sam Snyder.

Came accross this pic in Gray's Sporting Journal, Vol 1, Issue 4, Summer 1976.
It wasn't caught on a fly, but still a sweet pic of Frank Woolner posing with a huge striper against his fly-ass fishing mobile. I think the pic is from the 50s, or so it says.

Of course Sam's e-mail got me curious about the man behind the fly-ass cammo beach buggy.

Frank Woolner was a World War Two combat correspondent who went on to become a nationally recognized expert on ocean and fresh-water sport fishing. He was also a newspaper columnist; the Editor of Salt Water Sportsman Magazine of Boston for over twenty years; and wrote or co-wrote seven books on fishing and hunting. He also co-hosted a weekly TV show in the Boston area for a number of years with his brother Jack called "Woolner Brothers Outdoors."

The man lived large. LINK
