About 19,500 fishing and boating clips, peaking in the 1960s. A fishing trip was an event worth a roll of film, so the catch tends to get its close-up.
Rowboats and piers, lake mornings, kids with bent rods, the proud lineup of the day's haul held up for the camera. California and New York lead, almost all on 8mm and 16mm.

Fishing footage suits outdoor, travel, and lifestyle campaigns, environmental documentaries, and period scenes that need a real lake day of the era. The held-up-catch and the boat-on-the-water shots are the dependable pulls.
The 1950s and early 60s are small-boat and freshwater, all family and grain. The 1960s peak brings color and bigger trips. The 1970s keep the lake-day feel in warmer, softer tones.
