Although Francis B. Smith has been
known as an amateur fisherman, the
real anglers will have to take off
their hat to him, as yesterday he
landed the record kaku for Hawaii.
Fishing off Kaena Point, he landed .
kaku which weighed SO pounds.
Accompanied by Commodore Mac
farlane, Honolulu's we'll known
yachtsman, and Ed Paris, another
well known yachtsman and angler,
Smith started out. Paris and Smith
started on Saturday at l o'clock on
the Crete, owned by Commodore
Macfarlane. They trolled along Kasna
Point until dark and then Joined
Smiah, who had come over in the
Mollilou. The party spent the night
on the Moililou, and the next morning

the party met q number Of anglers
in the Sea Scout.
