Title: The Lost World of Mr. Hardy

Just watched an interesting show on Amazon Prime, "The Lost World of Mr. Hardy", I think anybody interested in fishing and fishing gear would find it worth watching.

Just finished watching it.  A good movie, with alot of good history.  A bit slow, and dry (as is the English way), but I enjoyed it.

Intetesting that Hardy produced the very first CF fishing rod, and had the first patent.

Thanks for the post :)

Dry? Dry?  It was downright arid.  I could not make it through a few minutes.  I don't watch television until baseball season starts.  Go Giants.  Dominick

That was the most riveting thing I have ever seen.  Zane Grey big game reel about 0:36.  Rolling carbon fiber blanks about 1:15.  The commercials became more insistent as time went on but PooPouri.com was pretty funny

Commercials?  I'm watching it on SnagFilms with no commercials for free.  I don't think I can sit still and watch it through the end in one sitting.

I am finding the old fishing gear interesting.

That's weird.  I watched on Snag Films too George because that's what came up first in a search.  But it had a commercial about every ten minutes.
