I certainly don't qualify as an old timer...but I have had this discussion with my grandfather. He started fishing the salt fairly seriously in the mid 1950's. He has never used a needle. Said he didn't see them untill later and never saw a reason to try them. "There's always something new." Back then he used eels, tins...like hopkins, bucktails and various wooden plugs, atoms and such. When the rebels and redfins came around, they were used much of the time. Luckily, he has some hoem movies from the late fifties and sixties of he and my grandmother and friends fishing. The buggies, the lack of any buildings along most of the beaches, really incredible and inspiring to see...
