and the keys which form the ocean beach,
furnishes d delightful and entirely safe
harbor for the hundreds of beautiful
yachts, palatial hOuseboats, etc, which
every winter flock to this port. where
their owners may have an opportunity OF
enioying the finest fishing in the United
States for, besides the king mackerel,
here are found the lordly tarpon, amber
Jack and bone fish, well as other va
rieties, bringing the total number OF va
rieties in these waters up to LOO.
The king mackerel, however, is the most
popular of the game fish, because 1t takes
bait at almost any time and puts up a
good hard fight when hooked. 1t is not
an unusual catch for a party on one boat
two lines fishing-to catch from nifty 10
one hundred of these gamey fish in day.
There is something more to look out for
in king mackerel fishing. too, than just
to play your nsh. One has to make all
haste to get the game into the boat, for
there are always numerous shark lying
in wait all about the fishing ground for a
hapless fish, and as soon as the shark
sees a fish hooked and thus at a disad-
vantage, it makes a dash for it, and UNI
less the angler is pretty quick with his
line all that will be left when the line
Is pulled in will be the head and about
six inches of the body Of the iish-the
shark taking the balance.
One Of the prettiest sights is to go out
on the king mackerel ground bright and
early on clear morning and see the king
mackerel jumping and feeding. At .imes
there are as many as hundred that one
could count In the air at one time. These
fish feed on the small sardines, which
they follow inshore and out again into
deep water, In depths from fifteen TO
sixty feet, and are caught trolling In sail
boats or launches.
The king mackerel Is a scaleless fish,
with tender skin and white meat of de-
licious flavor. and varies from five TO
thirty-five pounds in weight.
At Miami, where these fish arc shipped,
