Stories from the Sea: More Classic Photos from the F&S Archives
Stories from the Sea: More Classic Photos from the F&S Archives
My Toughest Fight
This photo (and the photo in the following slide) did appear in the Tunney story, published in November 1954. Tunney was a famous boxer who twice defeated Jack Dempsey in the 1920's. Titled "My Toughest Fight," it describes his battle against giant bluefin tuna during an International Tuna Cup match held off of Nova Scotia.

Additional Info
Check out this gallery of classic salt water fishing prints from the 30s through the 60s, dug out of some old file cabinets in the New York office. We've re-scanned them to fit our site's new larger format, and this time included scans of their backs, on which past editors of the magazine sometimes scribbled notes to each other.

I really enjoy these type of posts with classic fishing photographs, it is really neat to look back at some of the changes that have taken place thru the years of fishing.
That reel is a monster.. Wow.
some reel great catches.
Note on the above: The dorado is most definitely not a salmonid. I hesitate to paraphrase A. J. McClane's earlier note on the bonefish, but, "Characid you idiot."
