Hi - I have seen the Woodbine Challenge video which is available on several websites from the 1973 final. I was just wondering if anyone by any small chance has any of the other years like 1971, 1972, 1974, 1975 - as my dad was in a couple of the other finals and finished 3rd in one of them - I wanted to get hold of them and see him in his glory days!

Enjoyed watching that The year before i was born. Dickie Carr's hat at the draw was something else. It's made me think do will need half the crap (sorry i mean tackle) we carry
Anyone else got any links to any vintage match fishing videos ?
What was the name of the match fishing show that was on in the 80's?

Sorry cant help Oneabung..............but if you manage to track any footage down, please share it with us - hope someone has something stashed away

Playing pool in ireland with bobby , i once saw him hit the table with the flat of his hand and all the balls jumped up 4" off the bed . His hands were like shovels and when he got me in a head lock i thought my time had come . All good fun may i add
