Harbor police have gone into the
local fishing industry and currently
their catch includes two rusted car
wheels dating back 20 years, one
slime-covered marine engine which
chugged its final during the last war
and one decaying generator from
some long-forgotten machinery.
This odd assortment of junk,
buried deep in the mud of Wash
ington Channel, once held many an
able cruiser through all kinds of
weather, although to look at the OBJ
jects hauled up on dry land you
wonder how.
There was time when a yachts
man knew exactly what to do with
that old gear in the garage-it would
ably serve as an anchor for his
boats mooring.
But those days are over and now
a pleasure craft must use minimum
weight mushroom anchors, specified
anchor chains and special
mooring floats. They are all re-
uuired under new harbor regula-
tions and the District is tolerating
no substitutes.
That is why harbor police are
falling heir to the queerest assort-
ment of weighted objects ever
fished from the Potomac River.
Displaying their usual cooperation,
police are lending their assistance
this week to Capital Yacht Club
stewards charged with seeing that
members moorings are in order.
The work is being done from float
equipped with crane and tackle and
loaned to police by the Army en-
gineers.
In Washington Channel as well
as in Georgetown Channel and the
Anacostia River anchorage areas
they are following a set pattern in
supervising the layout of approved
moorings
Glass L yachts, above As feet. are
anchored in line adjacent to the

Week End Race Lures
More Than Dozen
Little Craft
Shippers Of Big Boots
Are Signed os Crews
For 50-MiIe Event
BY MALCOLM d. LAMBORNE, Jr.

BY MALCOLM d. LAMBORNE, Jr.
The forgotten fleet" of Chesa-
peake Bay will stage its annual
long distance race on the upper bay
this week end and the event prom
ises to end for all time that old
yachting cliche that little cruisers
aren't built for overnight racing.
1t is the third annual Potapskut
Trophy race, sponsored by the
Potapskut Sailing Association and
scheduled to get under way at 5
pm. tomorrow off Rock Greek
southeast Of Baltimore, Md.
Between II and Is assorted yawls,
sloops, cutters and just plain knock
aboutS comprising nearly all of the
little yachts registered in the delta
cruising class will set out in a
northeaSterly direction for a white
flashing buoy off Howells Point at
the mouth of the Sassafras River.
Returning over the same course,
the fleet will have covered a dis
tance of so miles. While the race is
not the longest scheduled on Chesa-
peake Bay for cruising and racing
craft, it is by far the greatest dis
tance the little 'deltas" will race
this summer.
The course purpoSely is laid out
in the upper reaches of the bay in
the event any severe storms strike
the fleet. If that happens there
are numerous handy anchorageS
into which the racers may duck.
It's interesting to note that some
OF the very same big boat shippers
who claimed the delta shippers were
staging an annual drowning party
have signed as crews on several of
tomorrow's entries. These pioneer
ing delta sailors apparently have
made the event safe enough even
to suit these large-boat sailors, who,
oddly enough, are notoriously eau
tious.
Each entry, which must be of
the true cruising type" will face
rigid inspection before the race
to assure officials they are properly
equipped and able to set out into
the bay on their own. Flashlights.
ring buoyS, ample drinking water
and supplies, and life preservers are
among the required equipment for
each yacht.
The deltas range IN size from
about 20 to 20 feet overall, and be-
cause there was no division below
Class G under the bay racing rule,
small group of owners of potential
Glass D boats banded together a
few years. ago to do something
about it.
In 1899 this group sponsored its
first overnight race over a triangular
course in the middle of the bay.
Six boats competed. Last year
double that number raced over a
course SIMILAR TO tomorrow event.
An even larger fleet than last year
is anticipated this time.
Winner the first year was Jim
Speer'S Bay Bird from Oxford. Md.
Defending the trophy won last year
will be Marshall Duer's fast sloop
Marcarle from the Potapskut S. A.
Club, located on Rock Creek. Young
Duer, who halls from Baltimore. is
one Of the founders of the delta
class.
With start late in the day, first
boats are not expected to finish
unity the early morning hours on
Sunday.

The Chesapeake Bay Fishing Fair
has become an annual affair of note
since its inception six years ago at
Tilghmans Island. Since it has been
held at most of the important points
of the upper and lower bay. but at
none of them has there been the
interest that this years fair, to be
held at North and Chesapeake
Beaches on September 5, 6 and 7,
seems to be engendering among
fishing fans all over the East.
At the June directors meeting
held at North Beach Wednesday
evening more than 40 were present
from half a dozen States. The in
terest at these meetings forecasts
the number of anglers attending the
fair.

School Tuna Show Gain OFF Ocean City
Big Boy Trout Season Anticipated

Indications of a good trout sea-
son in Chesapeake Bay waters have
been noted the past 10 days. Sew
eral big for so early in the season,
have been caught in the upper
Chesapeake.
Catches at Wachapreague, Chin
colleague and Cape Charles. while
large in numbers. have been small
in size, but that is changing as
the season gets older.
At Ocean City the boats are
catching larger trout and more of
them than for many years. Capt.
Crawford Savage reports some of
them exceeding Is pounds in weight
and we couldn't get him to drop
a pound in his estimate of their
size. We never have had any rea-
son to doubt his fish sense. If he is
right, that is fishing to talk about
a brand you are liable never to
see again in a lifetime-and worth
trying.
Offshore the marlin fishermen
continue to catch large numbers of
bonito and few blues, the latter
the 2-pounders that never follow
the big schools when they come
north and are found off the beaches
from Cape May to Miami through
out the summer. Fish we have
called summer blues for years.
For many weeks along the west
ern shore of Virginia big hard
heads have been the daily fare of
anglers. The usual early run of
trout wasn't up to normal spring
fishing and there weren't any blues
worth talking about.
Now, the trout are coming in
in old-time fashion, the jumbo hard
heads are more numerous than
ever and channel bass are being
taken in increasing numbers. Most
important, however. is the arrival
of the cobia schools. On Monday
Capt. Floyd Rollins brought in five
at Messick.
Cobia Fine Gamefish.
The cobia, often called black
bonito and by various other names,
is the top gamefish in the Chesa-
peake. 1t often attains a size of
10 and 80 pounds. Two exceeding
100 pounds have been caught by
anglers. Its great weight coupled
with an ability and a will to fight
makes a worthwhile day for any
angler.
It is along the Virginia shore from

shore; craft under 26 feet, class 8,
lay in a line adjacent to seawalls
or shorelines.
1t. William H. Carlin, the Dis
trict's harbor master, admitted yes
terday that many of the old moor
ings pulled from the river were on
their last legs. A majority of the
chains connecting anchors-or this
hybrid assortment of weighted OBJ
jects-and mooring floats have been
found worn nearly in two, 1t. Carlin
said.
He reminded boat owners yet to
procure new mooring equipment
that class l boats must swng to
250-pound anchor with a 1a-inch
link chain, class 2 vessels to a u.s.
pound anchor with as-inch chain
and class to a 100-pound anchor
with 5/16-inch chain.

Smith Point to Old Point Comfort
and off the lower Eastern Shore of
Virginia that the cobia congregate in
greater numbers than any other
place in America. Why more anglers
do not fish for them has been the
wonder of sport fishing enthusiasts.
Once they do find this fishing they
are sure to go back again and again.
The sand pitts off the mouth of
the York and the Rappahannock
Rivers are choice fishing spots, but
the greatest concentration of cobia
is around Messick and Buckroe
Beach and Fishermans Island near
Cape Charles.
The tuna schools hit Bimini May
Is right on the day year after year
and there they always are travelling
fish. The same is true at the mouth
of the ST Johns River in Northern
Florida, where Capt. Sonny Noel
reported them off St. Augustine on
May 25. Several small school tuna
have been caught off Ocean City
and now word comes from Dick
Reed that the big bluefins already
have been seen in Casco Bay in
Maine, earlier by several weeks than
their normal July arrival. Just an
other link in the chain of events
that seem to point this season out
as an exceptional one for big game
fish. Well know in another week
or two just how much they are to
be depended upon.
Best Fishing in Daytime.
Occasional calls come from anglers
wishing to know if the big tide
running trout are in at the Della
ware Capes They are. but the best
fishing is during the day. They are
not hitting at night as they usually
do. The best fishing is between the
outer and inner breakwaters.
And oddly enough we get the
same story of fish weighing up to
20 pounds. Hard to believe, even
though Arnold Steward swears to
one of II pounds ounces-which
is an ounce better than the present
world record.
