In 1956 Garcia; the exclusive North American distributor for ABU made three 16mm sound demonstration films to teach people how to use an Ambassadeur 5000 bait caster, a Mitchell 300 spinning reel and how to fly fish. The instructor in this film is Johnny Dieckman, the World Casting Champion! These amazing 16mm films were recently found and have been converter to video and now were showing them to the world. These three are just the start, much more to come!!!
