NY. TIMES OUTDOOR EDITOR
FISHES OUTER BANKS AREA

Mays Head. = John Randolph
who succeeded Raymond R. Camp
as editor of hunting, fishing and
outdoor news on The New York
Times had an opportunity during
some of the foul weather of the
past week to observe various phas-
es of fishing in Outer Banks wat
ers, both salt and fresh. He did
not land channel bass, one of the
prize fish of Spring in coastal
waters, but he did get in on the
bluefish blitz.
With Mrs. Randolph and party
of friends the New York Times
outdoorsman trolled in Oregon In
let one day. The blues were thick
and the party landed 263-a nice
catch, even though the fish ran
small in size. To make it more in
teresting Randolph used spinning
gear and 4-pound test monofila-
ment line on the blues. "This," he
said, "made the fishing real sport"
Before returning to New York
Randolph surveyed the fishing sit
uation from Oregon Inlet to Cor
ola in salt and fresh waters and
got reports on the Gulf Stream
and big game fishing south of the
inlet in the Cape and Hatteras vii
lage sector. He plans to make a
return trip to Dare waters before
too long.
Camp, his predecessor at the
New York Times, we'll known on
the Dare Coast, is now heading
a fabulous resort on Andres Is
land, in the Bahamas.
