number all the rest. Less than half mile
away the SURF rolled into the Atlantic and drum
abounds. Most OF the fishing was done with
light bass tackle, with which trout, blue fish
and founders were caught. MANY of tina front
caught were as much as two feet long and prob
ably none less than from sixteen 10 eighteen
inches. Occasionally one would run over two
feet. They were about as game as the Potomac
bass, though, OF course, by no means as heavy
to their length, and it took skillful mana cement
to land one. The hooks with long double
snoods used for the Potomac bass we're of no
service for this fishing. The trout or blue fish
had one very large chum hook, with two-inch
links Of wire, bitten of clean. The night had
to be spent In putting proper wire snoods
on hooks in stock. 1t often took from fifteen to
twenty minutes to land a fish. and they struck
almost as fast as the hooks were nut in water
One hours fishing showed up the finest string
OF fish ever saw. The surf fishing was equally
successful, and lines were used, Of course, and
some Of the drum caught measured nearly three
feet short time spent surf fishing produced
two strings OF fish, each Of which was too much
for one man 70 carry. One bunch was carried
on a pole between two men and the other had
to be dragged along the sands by one of the
life savers, to whom 1t was given.

and he was still tempting the fish by casting

Presently q fish seized the hook and carried
out nearly fifty yards of line from the reel be-
fore his headlong course could be stopped
Then there followed struggle be-

was a monster, there was no doubt
on that point, and he must be managed
with care il the tackle was to be saved and he
landed. For half an hour the battle continued
the fish sometimes being close to the side Of
the schooner and sometimes nearly all the line
being unwound from the reel and the rod bent
almost double. The club came eagerly out Of
the cabin to watch the fight. and one stood
with landing net ready by the side of the
schooner. Finally the monster was drawn to
the surface and the landing net was thrust un-
der him. There was heavy flop on deck and
there lay q monster skate. The novice quit in
