And here's another tale Of the
briny deep off Ocean City'S
pleasant shores, only this time
it has to deal with the fiercest
fighter of them all, blue marlin:
Capt. Rick Savage, with his
guest, Commander Tom Scott,
came within a fraction Of enter
ing the fishing Hall Of Fame on
Sunday. While fishing on the
Jack Spot, Commander Scott
hooked into a blue marlin and
had him on for three hours. The
chain on the rudder Of Rick's
cruiser, Ace Hi, came unfast-
ened during the fight and he
could not turn the boat in time
to follow the fish in his mad
rush for freedom. The fish
carried off $50 yards Of line
during his last run and with
only so more yards left on the
spool of the reel Commander
Scott applied a little too much
pressure and the fish went to
sea. It was the belief Of Cap
tain Savage that If the accident
had not happened he could
have followed the fish, with full
steam ahead, and eventually
played him out. But such was
not to be, and still Ocean City's
first blue marlin Is in the
MAKING
The Washington times., 1938-09-09

Here's Walter Shipe and his
5115 pounds Of marlin, taken at

guiding hand of Capt. Talbot

Ster after y gallant scrap last

SON Of WaShingtOn's well-knOwn
Frank ]. Shipe.
Marlin have carried on In q
sort of crazy fashion this season
off Ocean City. In one instance,
q hooked marlin made q ter
rifle leap for freedom and, as
he was In midair, another mar
lin, q free swimmer, with q
ponderous lunge, ran his fellow
clansman through with his
sharp spike. The fish fell dead
upon the water, but, before the
angler could reel him in, an
other monster of the sea, q
Maco shark, came along to de-
YOUR all but the head. It's the
same old story Of the sea: Big
fish eat little fish-or might Is
right.
