Thanks, it was fun to do but I was just the coordinator of this piece. If it wasn't for Karl F, Tony C., #^&#^&#^&#^& Samms, Al Bentsen, Stan Kuzia, Adam R and Peter O'Niel's help I couldn't have put this together.
I hope to do more of these in the future and preserve the past through making more people aware of this sports history.
Nice story Steve. I especially enjoyed the line "this must have seemed much better a proposition than spending all his time in a machine shop". The guy knew what he was talking about What is it with striper fishing and machinist's there has been quite a few greats that called it their trade. I bet a lot has to do with being cooped up inside all day that you really excel at anything outdoors when you get the opportunity. As always though there are exceptions to the rules and I will keep my day job.

Steve, I am glad you were able to talk with #^&#^&#^&#^& Samms.
Who better to talk to, than Arnold's good friend?
Look forward to reading it, stopped by Booksmith here in town, but all they had was a stack of December 06.
Maybe somebody could bring a copy to plugfest, I could read?
A picture of Arnold and #^&#^&#^&#^&... circa mid fifties.
