FISHING THE PACIFIC 



an important reason why Mr. and Mrs. Lemer and Mrs. 

 Farrington and I were sent to Europe and the Pacific. 



Very few residents of any of these local islands in the 

 Pacific have any desire to push the sport or develop it them- 

 selves. It is always left to the visiting fishermen or others who 

 may be stationed there or stopping over for a sojourn of some 

 duration. The commercials, of course, do pretty well, but 

 then their methods are not the methods of the rod-and-reel 

 angler.
