1963 Penn Reel Catalog

Recently had an old timer give me an old Penn reel Catalog from 1963.
It has a page dedicated to the top 20 striped bass taken up to that year. 16 0f the 20 were taken using Penn Reels. The bass in order were: 73 by Church (Cutty 1913), 68.5 by Gray (Truro 1958), 66.8 by Nee (Vineyard 1962), 66.4 by Mularczyk (Gay Head 1954), 66 by Hunsinger (Montauk 1961), 65.10 by Cordeiro (Ptown 1962), 65.4 by Cook (Cutty 1961), 65 by Clarke (Beavertail 1936), 65 by Olson (California 1951), 65 by Levesque (Charlestown RI 1960), 65 by Paterson (Pt Judith 1962), 64.14 by Katine (NY 1958), 64.8 by Brown (Gay Head 1961), 64.8 by Webb, Rosa (Truro 1960), 64.8 by Webb, David (Truro 1960), 64.4 by Lane (Montauk 1958), 64 by DeForest (Truro 1960), 64 by Crandall (Cutty 1962), 64 by Sparuk (Cutty 1962), 63.12 by Donon (Middletown RI 1958). Interesting bit of history.

Is that the same Cordeiro who was the charter boat captain for years until recently in the Chatham area?

Neil Cordeiro owned the Gulf station next to Duatre Motors on Bradford Street in P-town. That fish hung above his desk in his office. It was an awesome sight to behold. I'd buy my cokes from his machine, not my bosses, at breaktime just to see it. Got me some sideways glances from Joe Duarte, God rest him.
Mr. Cordeiro died in a boating accident much later. Good guy, took time to chat with a teenaged me .

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

DZ , thank you for posting this list. Mularcyk was one of three
brothers who co-owned a classic bass boat which they kept
moored in Clark cove south end of NB. In their later years they
trolled using wire. But in 1954 they probably used a different method.
One fish not mentioned was caught by Frank Machado in the Canal in the late 50's. It weighed 67 lbs. and was caught on a
large Gibbs cast a lure popper. This fish won the Gov.cup in Mass.
and to this day maybe the largest Bass caught in the Canal.
