82 SUNSHINE AND SPORT 



morning, I stepped ashore at Useppa Pier. The 

 first object to meet my gaze was a huge tarpon of 

 over 1 20 lbs., a prize, as I soon learnt, of the 

 evening before. Forgotten were all my troubles 

 as I gazed at the monster herring, the first that 

 I had seen in its native air, untouched by the 

 taxidermist. 



This looked like business at last. 



I had arrived !
