We continue our series on Hollywood Goes Fishing with a photo of Gary Cooper, the legendary star of movies such as High Noon and Pride of the Yankees, holding a stringer of fish in the late 1950s, not long before his passing. Cooper was a dedicated fisherman who spent as much time outdoors as he could. I must confess that Cooper is one of my favorite actors, and his portrayal of Alvin York--for which he won an Academy Award--is one of the great performances in Cinema history.
