FISHING ABOARD the STEAMBOAT ANGLER, New York, NY – 1908 The original caption for this 1908 photo was "Danger of Interference – Two Tiers of Fishermen" and it shows what anglers dealt with when fishing aboard Captain Al Foster's "ANGLER". Long fishing rods were an absolute necessity when fishing from an upper deck, and if you think this is a tough situation, the "ANGLER" had THREE fishing decks!
