A party of ten was aboard the "Mary Anne" out of Port Orange with L. N. Wisser in charge. It seems the "Happy Landing" made a happy choice by turning west at the Fourteen Mile banks. John Mary won the King's Landing $500 prize for a 24 pound 13 ounce albacore. Third place winner was Sully Roquet who caught a 22 pound albacore. The second placer was a harbor man. A total of 14 sizeable albacore was boasted by the party. Aboard the "Mary Anne" only one albacore was sighted by the group of ten which turned east at the Fourteen Mile Banks. White sea bass and halibut were taken, however. Top honors went to Sam Loard who caught a 14 pound bass. The take was small but numerous, Wisser stated. Skipper Lane of the "Happy Landing" gaffed a 150 or 160 pound shark which had clipped three of eight albacore on lines simultaneously, Octave Roquet commented. Roquet hauled in one 19 pound hand over hand after his reel broke, he said. L. H.
