By the Associated Press. MIAMI, Fla., December 19.—A lusty grip, a set of steady nerves and the | ability to suppress excitement are just | a few of the qualities that President- | elect Herbert Hoover will need when he makes his bow as a deep-sea angler in the Gulf Stream while visiting in Florida. This, in substance, is the collective view of 20 to 30 skippers of the fishing fleet here, whose daily lot is cast with the fighters of the sea. Herbert Hoover, they have been told, is a veteran of the fresh water rod and reel—a far cry -from the adult-sized equipment the Gulf Stream fisherman uses to tackle the crafty, hard-hitting | sailfish, the swift-darting marlin sword- fish, the vicious barracuda and the deep- diving tuna and grouper. “Hoover probably has enough expe- is to keep cool,” says Capt. Bobby Byrnes, veteran guide who served many men of public note. “He will find, however, a different type of fight than y | that of trout or bass.

If it strikes and is hooked it requires skill and patience, strength and craft. Hoover will need to know the trick of hooking a sailfish, which always strikes twice and is never hooked on the first.” “Mr. Hoover,” believes Capt. G. M. Stevens, another veteran fisherman, “only needs to become accustomed to the difference in fighting a deep-sea fish. He may be amazed at the speed of deep-sea angling, but with his expe- | rience he should give a nice account of himself. Strength and endurance count Hoover is strong and is cool in a crisis. He will lose few fish if he follows his natural bent.” Capt. Fred Hutter, a veteran of many years' experience, thinks “Hoover will find such a wide variety of fish here that he will get a different type each day. I think he’ll like the sail for game ard the marlin for sheer fight.” “Hoover is a good fisherman and a good seaman,” says Capt. Willlam Pa- lastneck. guide for Herbert Hoover three years ago at Key West and guide to Frank B. Kellogg, Secretary of State. “He can stand rough weather, knows what a-big one will do and never tires. He's fond of fishing and can take advice.” Capt. Harry Coons of the yacht Eagle Eye thinks Hoover will get a thrill in the Gulf Stream. “They strike like falling bowlders,” Capt. Coons says. rience tq remember the first requisite- - 2 .
