Yep. Cory Well of Three Dog Night loved to fish, too! He'd take some the other guys in the band out in between tour dates.
Love those Open Face Spinning Reels! (Especially ABU & ABU/Zebco)

Re: Didn't Know He Fished...
Yeah, Duane Allman.
And, Roger Daltry. Didn't know he fished either.
And... Eric Clapton hunts.
Who'd a guessed. Then... who'd've guessed not?
At first, I was curious about Duane Allman's reel. Appears it was a Zebco, prob 202.

If that was Joe Cocker, he’d probably be flat on his back. Or have fallen into the lake and dripping wet.
That’s the great thing about fishing. It is for kings and paupers and everyone is equal in the pursuit.

Re: Didn't Know He Fished...
That's, of course, Roger Daultry sans cape.
I was saying, another rocker, JC was an avid fly guy in Colorado I believe.
I've also heard that Clapton is a salmon guy.

Re: Didn't Know He Fished...
But what about Taj Mahal? The Fishin' Blues?
Fishin' Blues
I betcha' goin' fishin' all o' the time
Baby goin' fishin' too
Bet you life, your sweet wife
Is gonna catch more fish than you
Many fish bites if you got good bait
Here's a little tip that I would like to relate
With my pole and my line
I'm a goin' fishin', yes I'm goin' fishin'
And my baby goin' fishin' too
I went on down my favorite fishin' hole
Baby got myself a pole an' line
Caught a nine poun' catfish
On the bottom, yes I got him
And I brought him home to my mom about supper time
Singin' many fish bites if you got good bait

Re: Didn't Know He Fished...
Mike, Flynn is fishing with Tycoon Bimini King rods and Fin-Nor reels.OK, we all know this is the original Robin Hood, but what reel is he fishing here?
Looks like Robert Mitchum fishing ... but not at Cape Fear.
