Important history in those. I'll view them at racepics' place. If I'd had a video camera around 1960, I'd now be able to show you surfcasters with bamboo rods hauling in 2 to 8kg snapper during the middle of a hot day at Westshore-no need to go as far as Whirinaki back then. Around that time, a resident there by the name of Reg McKinnie told me his neighbour caught 50 snapper in a weekend with the rods. I don't recall the time of year, but I'm guessing that was the height of the season around March.
