ISHING season for most of us has 
drawn its curtains. But there’s a 
new year coming with greater thrills, 
better luck and bigger fish. 
All through the long winter months 
you will be laying plans. When the 
time comes for getting new tackle, 
remember the three leaders of their 
classes —the three best partners a 
fisherman ever had—Bristol Steel 
Fishing Rods, Meek and Blue Grass 
Reels and Kingfisher Silk Fishing Lines.
