Face Big Week End;
Season Near End
By Malcolm Lomborne, Jr,

A 100-mile bay race for cruising
and racing division yachts and the
annual small boat regatta Of West
River Sailing Club, both slated for
tomorrow. will bring the Chesa-
peace racing season nearly to q
close.
For power boat fans, however.
there are the Star Spangled Banner
Regatta of Maryland Yacht Club
at Baltimore and the Detroit Silver
Cup Regatta, both to be held tomor-
row and Sunday.
Urbanna Yacht Club Regatta on
the Rappahannock River caps the
Chesapeake regatta season next
week end. This leaves only the three
week ends Of the Presidents Cup
Regatta, which gets under way Sep
TENDER 6 and winds up Septem-
Der 81.
Top Racers TO Be Entered.
The 100-mile race, sponsored by
Gibson Island Yacht Squadron, will
attract some of the best blue water
racers on the bay. Advance entries
indicate good turnout. The race
starts at pm. tomorrow off Glib
son Island and takes the fleet down
the bay to a buoy near the mouth
of the Patuxent River. Yachts will
round this buoy and race back to
Gibson Island.
Leaders, depending on the wind,
are expected to cross the finish line
some time before noon on Sunday.
Starters will include Frank Green
man of Arlington, whose sloop
Alsumar made the second best time
of the feet last year; cutter High
land Light of the Naval Academy,
winner of the best corrected time
of the fleet in 1916, and Norman
Owens cutter Sashay, winner of
last Sundays cruising division In
the academy regatta.
The Highland Light, always a
threat in the big boat classes. Is
rated high to take the Chesapeake
Bay Cruising Cup again-this for
best corrected time in classes A, B
and G combined. The cutter Is a
class A yacht.
Three-Race Series.
At nearby Galesville many Wash
ington area shippers will compete
in three-race series extending over
Sunday Sailors from Washington
are expected to figure in both the
penguin and comet classes. The
West River shippers have a way of
dominating the Chesapeake 20s
class. However, Bobbie Orme, in
his Bluewater from Corinthian
Yacht Club. has been giving the
Galesvile boys hard time of it
this summer
The penguin race should produce
some fun, if ice Kraft of Alex
andria, runnerup in the nationals
earlier this month, and Charles
Runyon, a Washingtonian who has
taken up a summer home on West
River, tangle. Runyon placed high
in the national races at Hampton
Runyon and Kraft, along with a
number of penguin dinghy shippers
have entered their boats in the
Urbanna regatta September 6 and
7. This class will hold its third
regional championships in conjunc-
ton with the regatta.
The Urbanna show includes big
boat race on Sunday.

back 104 hardhead, which while ex.

take at the Gooses. Other boats
have been coming in with from one

blues and rockfish have been giving
a fair account of themselves with
trollers and chummers, and the same
is true in the Solomons Island area
most ofthe fish being in the pan-size
class. Some large cobia are being
taken in the vicinity of the North
west Middles.
In the lower Potomac bottom fish
ing has been somewhat better, and
occasionally trollers have hit the
jackpot with the stripers. The Nor
folk spot here have been running
larger in size, and hardhead like

bass and weakfish In the Bay, but it
Is going to take some cool nights to
consolidate the schools and bring
them to the top where trollers can
get some real action.
If we just had to go fishing this
week end, our bet would be to get a
boat out of any of the beaches on
the western shore Of the Bay, run
offshore to about 20 feet OF water
and bottom fish while drifting.
Either that or try our hand trolling
in the early morning and late after
noon for the small stripers, trout
and blues which have been surfacing
generally well offshore. In our
opinion, it will be at least another
fortnight before angling regains its
stride in Chesapeake Bay waters.

We have been checking around
this week on fresh water angling
prospects, particularly with respect
to smallmouth bass. From the
Shenandoah, the news Is not en-
couraging. While the water has
been reasonably clear, hot weather
and moss in the river have made the
fishing poor. The bass are sluggish.
In the upper Potomac, with the ex-
ception of moss, conditions have
been about the same. Some few
good bass have been taken this
week. one below Williamsport, Md,
weighing more than Ga pounds, but
these have been exceptions to the
rule. Anglers in Triadelphia Reser-
voir and Deep Creek Lake in Mary
land all report poor fishing.
