Tbe Horrje.. 



..of tbe Tetrpop 



Within half-a-mile of the Hotel at Marco, Fla., tarpon can be 

 caught in numbers. It is here that anglers come from all parts 

 of the Gulf Coast to take this lish, the waters being so access- 

 ible, and the tarpon always to be had. 



..IN ADDITION TO THE TARPON.. 



the waters abound in the smaller game fish, such as the red- 

 lish (channel bass or drum), the mangrove snapper, Spanish 

 mackerel, sheepshead, schoolmaster (Lafayette or spot), snooks. 

 yellow tails, etc., etc. At certain times and tides most of these 

 fish can be caught a few hundred yards from the hotel. 



..MARCO IS BEAUTIFULLY LOCATED.. 



with two large creeks aboundmg in fish on either side, a mag- 

 nificent cocoanut grove in front, and picturesque groves all 

 around. Being built on grounds made by shell deposits, perfect 

 drainage and consequent healthfulness is assured. 



I have just completed an attractive and comfortable hotel 

 at Marco, Fla., and offer visitors home-like treatment, and 

 all the attractions that abound in this beautiful section of Florida. 

 Mr. William C. Harris, editor of The American Angi er, spent 

 some time at Marco, in February, 1895, and I beg to refer to 

 him in corroboration of the above statement of the fishing and 

 other attractions of this place. 



Marco is reached by rail to Punta Gorda, thence by steam- 

 boat to Marco. For rooms, terms, etc., address,
