LOL.. that was back in the day before I had vices.
Definitely the seventies though. Those were my water ski'n Swimin, tubin shorts. I must of spent half my time in the water back then.
Here's the tube I was fishing out of:
Still have it. Found it recently when I was unpacking stuff from my parents house. Posted about it a few months ago:

Here's the location Granbury Dam:
Back then you could legally go right up to the dam into the white water.
I was actually right in between the open gates casting back towards the North side when I hooked it. Pencil popper fish, no grippers or gaffs back then just grab em by the gills. My biggest fear was the it would hang the second treble in my leg. A handful of pencil poppers, shorts, no hat, no sunscreen, a seven foot Shakespeare "wonder rod" with a ABU, 15lb Ande, and the tube and some fins. Those were the days..
You wouldn't catch me out there now without sunscreen or in those shorts either
