Feminine Angler
Catches Big Tarpon
Mrs. Charles O Moller, or Camden.
S. C., experienced the thrill that
cornea once iu a lifetime thla morn*
lug when alio fought and landed a
?7 12 pound tarpon, the tlrat one
caught In Sarasota waters this season.
Saturday the Mollera wont Osblng
with Capt Clarence Koberta and
earned the honor of being the first
person to hook a tarpon this spring,
but they were unublo to land either
of the two that struck on that day
This morning they left City pier at
6 O'clock and in the channel Just off
Sarasota the sliver monster struck
Mrs. Moiler'B line and began a battle
that lasted for 35 minutes. Mrs Moller,
who has never before caught a
tarpon, wus very happy and excited
over her experience, and showed considerable
skill In playing the big follow.
Cftpt. Roberts was at her side
advising her and lending the wisdom
i garnered In his many years of Halting
This is the nineteenth tlmo In i
twenty-two years that Capt. Roberts
has brought in the lirst tarpon of the
season.
Leaping clear out of the water
seven times, the tarpon presented a
beautiful sight as his silvery scales
flashed in the morning sunlight and
he shook his head in an effort to dislodge
the hook that was keeping him
a prisoner. Even though Mrs. Moller
was using a 21*thread line and heavy
taekle, there wpre moments when it
seemed that the big fish would gain
his freedom. Slowly he tired, and
she reeled him closer to the boat, yet
several times he gained new strength
and dashed away again to the tune of
a singing reel.
At last the battle was ended, and
with the tarpon towed at the back of
the boat the party headed for the
pier, arriving at 8 o'clock, just two
hours after they had left.
Mr. Moller is having the fish mounted
by Cecil Maus. and will take it
back to South Carolina?^arasota
