Don't know about y'all, but I find it so dang cool when I see vintage tackle being used on old TV shows and movies. We all know about the old Hemingway movies, but today I spotted a nice old baitcaster on The Munsters TV show. I admit, that show cracks me up big time! ;D ;D ;D

Cool (but he's on the right). ;D
who's upper left... Nikita? ;D
Rockford Files had some cool fishing scenes once and awhile. Kind of ghetto fishing off Malibu and Paradise Cove pier
Looks like Herman has a Pflueger with the Cub Kit on it .
1313 Mockingbird Lane . Watch it every day pretty much after the Adams Family , then later Green Acres.

:D I actually remember seeing that episode, way back when. That was a funny scene.
In the 1944 movie "To Have and Have Not" with Humphrey Bogart, we see what appears to be a door knob handle first gen 9/0.

Watch the clip here. You can move backwards and forwards to see the previous/next clips. They are only a second or two long

Cool. Looks like his client is a hook-up "have not".
Not a vintage reel, but I just saw my Okuma Helios on one of those drug commercials, lol. They were trout fishing with it. ::) Btw, it's one of the best reels I've ever owned! ;D
I was watching The Goonies the other night.. When Chunk calls the sheriff, the sheriff is playing with a red Penn reel at his desk, maybe a #9?

I am not sure but it might be a 12/0 rather than a 9/0. I'm going on the fact that the star wheel of the drag appears to have six spokes rather than five. Either way, I too love spotting old gear in the films.
Just watched Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Season 1 Episode 5. A guy's wearing a fishing hat full of lures, says he's going "fly fishing". Later on they show a close-up of the hat, full of bass plugs and spinner lures, and he's using a baitcaster, holds on to the handle as he's casting it too. Has anybody ever fished in that bunch? Absolutely clueless! LOL ;D
Most depictions of fishing on TV and in the movies are cringe-worthy. An exception would be any of the Humphrey Bogart movies that feature fishing. And my all time favorite, "Tiger Shark" with Edward G. Robinson

That's some funny stuff! :d
The Julia Childs bit had me ROFL'ing. Love the wife too.
He sure does use some humongous gear for a little freshwater outing, eh?. :fish
Now who does that remind me of? ::)
What about Henry Blake's hat on MASH? I think there are some Les Davis Bolo Spinners on it.
Not exactly a new release, but today I watched for the first time, "Walk the Line", a Jonny Cash biopic. Great movie, and had several Zebco 33 scenes, they even referred to it by name. Oh, and Reese is a doll!
my favorite stooges episode
Lots of cluelessnes in Holeywood, more in adds.

Love the book, didn't know it was a movie!
John, Crunch and Des was also a weekly TV series in the late 50's or early 60's. Maybe before your time. It didn't last long and only a couple of the episodes seem to be available on line.

I've been asked a few times "to do the world a favor". :d ;D ;D
The wrighters spend all of their time circling around Uranus wiping out Klingons.
Wow! great reel Ted. i like how the "fisherman" in that film not only loses 2 fish, but the rod n reel as well!
Looks like either Penn Senators or Long Beaches in Gilligan's Island
In the intro and closing segment of The Rockford Files at the very end it pretty much looks like Rockford and his Dad Rocky hanging out on the pier with a couple of Penn's. - john
John, Rockford files ?? You're showing your age lol...What a hunk James Garner was...and I bet Pontiac sold a ton of that same Firebird he drove....yes, I watched that show too, so I guess I must be old as the hills
Rockford files was first filmed at paradise cove pier. It got washed away during a huge El Niño swell so they moved it to Malibu pier, I think that's the one in that episode. Isaac Hayes was awesome in that show, he called Jim rockfish. One of my all time favorite shows
Adam 12 showed a glimpse of a DQ,I have to look up the details again.
