Creel Perch...

[The Sweetcorn Kid]

From July 1964, I think this is delightful....

[Macdescruple]

Totally agree SK. I'd have been 7 years old at the time and a picture like that would have made my eyes pop out on stalks. I had to make do with my Brooke Bond Freshwater fishes album.

[Wild Duck]

Great image!

[Dave Burr]

So much better than some idiot holding the latest must have item of tackle or bait at arms length to the camera lens - pure quality.

I love the hues and grittyness of older photos like this. Proper fish, too!

[Rutland Rod]

Yes a cracking pic, you can see where Zander get the 'pike/perch' name, this one at a quick glance has the 'zander look' quite long and lean.

Tight lines

A lovely front cover indeed.

[GregF]

Where’s all the big bold headlines saying: 'How To Catch A PB without even trying!' Or 'Barbel Boilie Bonanza!' Or 'Try our Carlos Fandango Wonder-rig To Nail Those Lumps!' Or 'Win a Million Kilos of Codpiece Carp Pellets!' I dunno, call that a magazine??!!!

Seriously though, a wonderful picture and cover.

[J.T]

Really like that alot.

[Carp Artist]

the picture speaks a thousand words.
