Check this out for some famous names. I think you'll have to click the 'view on youtube' link.
Let me know if it doesn't work and I'll point you to the channel.

Dick Walker, Fred J Taylor, Peter Stone, Peter Wheat, Colin Willock, Owen Wentworth, Jack Hargreaves, not sure I've seen so many legends in one film before. Throw in what looked to me like an Aerialite, a Trudex/ rapidex, a bit of spanish reed and some early fixed spool reels, maybe even an early closed face reel. What's not to like except perhaps the keep nets!

Yes nice to see some Intrepids in the mix. Both Walker and Taylor using one. Although maybe they dug out their least cherished gear in anticipation of some awkward handling! Anyone have any idea what reel Peter Stone was using? Fred J's rod must have been split cane judging by the shape of the top section! Just so exciting to see such a group of well known and influential anglers and actually put a face to some.
