#2I certainly don't know oldest, but got me thinking of my first experience with hunting and fishing films.
I remember in the 1950's going to local movie theater and a gentleman called Wally Taber would show and narrate films on his outdoor adventures. As a young kid I still remember him dressing up to match his adventures.
Sorry if not exactly about fly fishing.

#5Well, drat, as they used to say. I was hoping to see if (or not) casting techniques of today were quite different back in the day.
Well, not as old as I was hoping:

Here is another one about Montana in the 1930s with a fly cast at 0.22, and shows landing a fish at the end.

#9There is more catching than casting, but this dates back to 1900. Watch the guy on the rocks above his fish catching friend below - amazing he didn't bite it when he slipped a bit....

#12Awesome! As I thought not as "fancy" as today with multiple casts, mostly just a single cast. Quite the "rigs" they used.
