ONNYBOY was given a merry 
round of fishing, so soon as we had 
sufficiently rested up from our frightful 
experience, to enjoy boats, angling, the 
Realm of a Thousand Keys. For five 
hours, upon our return to the city, the 
pall of smoke over parks and streets 
and Bay front, reminded us of the 
horror we had so recently left behind. 
For my part, although it remained 
a secret to all save Sonnyboy and 
“Black Bass Joe,” I chaffed and fretted 
and was conscience-troubled by the 
knowledge that I alone was responsible 
for that dread conflagration. I told 
Sonnyboy—made a clean breast of it. 
His only comment was: 
“Those things just happen, Dad—to 
everybody, once in a while.” 
Our first obligation was to Joe. Three 
days later, we went out to see him and 
fished the canal for Black Bass, with 
phenomenal success. Sportsmen, it is 
a marvelous ground if you ever care to 
combine bass fishing with the exotic as 
to surroundings. 
And then a week of thrill, along 
widely diverging lines—our final week 
of Comradeship. There was the day we 
went with Cap’n Billy Sanderson, of 
the Motor Boat Martindale, and as- 
sisted in landing a 300-pound sea turtle, 
to say nothing of kingfish and barra- 
cuda. There was our little cruise with 
Rollins, the day we brought in a mon- 
ster amberjack, tipping the scales at 
seventy-three pounds. Collins used a 
fifteen-strand line and a heavy rod— 
heavy tackle, in professional parlance, 
but needed it! 
APTAIN Newt Martin will remem- 
ber the day we were out with him, 
and for the sheer sport of the thing, de- 
cided to see how many cannibals of the 
sea we could catch. We cruised down 
to one of our former fields of conquest, 
and made a record when it came to 
sharks, under Captain Martin’s shrewd 
supervision—nine of the ugly devils! It.

was during this trip that we saw the

one hammer-head weighing two thou-

And then we went on a two-day trip 
to Angelfish Creek, where Sonnyboy 
caught bass and trout to his heart’s 
content, although the expedition seemed 
trite enough as compared with Newt’s 
recent cruise of twenty-three days fish- 
ing off Bimini. It was here that mem- 
bers of the Captain’s party caught leap- 
ing-tuna—twenty-eight of them, to be 
exact. But the total catch figures are 
interesting: 105 amberjack, 15 barra- 
cuda, 85 mackerel, 17 kingfish, 12 shark, 
40 abacore, 3 dolphin, 12 sailfish, 3 
tarpon, 96 grouper, 17 red snapper, 18

Sonnyboy had heard so much of stone 
crabs, and had found them so delicious 
as a salad, that we tried our hand at
