Fishing Editor madd dba a sess sss sas aeD Det Mtl tein 7 WAILS: , A WORD TO THE VISITOR To you it might appear-we are ‘in Key West's waters, and if it | does, you are absolutely right, we are. Where in these United States could you walk down to the foot of the street in the business sec- tion of the city and catch fish, particularly fish that tilt seales at 224 pounds? Sounds fantastic-doesn’t it, but that is exactly what Captain Wil- liam Wickers did Thursday morn- ing. He landed a jewfish at the foot of Duval street, just a short block from the Florida National Bank building. He not only had thé pleasure of catching it, he was paid for it. He sold the fish to a local . fish dealer, and pocketed a nice piece of change. That’s what you could call, “haying your cake and eat- ing it, too.” And this is not one of those ence in a lifetime cases, both Captain Wickers and his r ate Gould Curry, last year accounted for seven at this very spot. Bragging? Yes, we are. Maybe you would too, why not try your hand at it? Maybe you would feel the same way. The Fish Are Biting Fishing in the Key West area the} since the fish on thte..racks are an eye catcher; and es you stop whether you want to or not. Several suggestions have been offered, among them, one that would permit angle parking on the right nand side of the boule- vard going north, with no park- | ing allowed on the side by the fish racks. This way the visitor entering thé city can drive slow- } ly along the boulevard and see the catches, or if they prefer to stop, could park on the other ' side of the boulevard. In either event, we just as well wait for a few days and see what | happens. W. C.

This is the forecast today of the National Safety Council after going through its fic score for the first 11 monhs of '1949. The figure may be revised upward or downward, .depend- ‘ing on motorists’ and pedestrians’ behavior on: New Year’s eve. A final traffic death toll for the year is forecast dt 31,500. Last year the toll was 32,000. During November the motor death count was 3,020 which was two per cent more than in the same month last year. This put the 1l-month toll at 28,350, a drop of two per cent compared with 1948. Last month 307 cities had per- fect records of no traffic fatal- ities. The largest was Long Beach, California. Nashville,! Tennessee was _ second largest and Salt Lake City, Utah, third. For 11 months, 73 cities had; perfect records. Passaic, New Jersey, was the largest; Great Falls, Montana, second, and Ann Arbor, Michigan. third.

Captain Teddy Canova, of the, charter boat, Flo-Along, reports that Dr. Harold Ritche and his daughter Elaine accounted for a miscellaneous catch of fish. Top-; ping the catch was a kingfish that; tilted the scales at 45% pounds, one of the largest fish reported this year. That winds up the scales, but it is interesting to note that the 1949-50 winter season is well ahead of last year. For the first’ time this season, every charter, boat at the pier was away from the dock. Yes, fishing is good in Key West, even when the waters are rough.
