Mr. Wil lison landed the beauty Saturday from Capt. Hubert Fulcher's Blue Water. Mrs. V. C. Rudolph of Winston Salem has elaimed the honor of being the first woman to eateh a , blue marlin off Morehead City. Mrs. Rudolph and her husband had just returned from an unsue < essful big game fish hunt off Aca- ' pulco and in the Bahamas to find their prize right at home. The Rudolph party went to the marlin grounds aboard Hu bert Fuli-hex's Blue Water Wed nesday, hooked two marlin at the same time, and after 20 min utes released one. Usually two at one time means two lost, but Mrs. Rudolph, determined not to lose her big fish, brought him to the boat in one hour 20 min utes. She remarked, "At one time i Captain Hubert asked me if I ( wanted to let him go; sueh a thought never oeeurred to me." The 11-foot 294 -inch marlin makes the score for Captain Hubert four, and the season's total from More head City's marlin grounds, 21. In direct contrast to Mrs. Ru dolph's sportsmanship in catch ing her 324 % -pound fish, accord ing to the rules and unaided, are reports we've been getting about some cobia fishermen who must subdue anything over a 10-pound er with a 22 pistol or better. Isn't it greater sport to play the fish until he's worn out, then bring him aboard with a well aimed swing of the gaff? Although cobia fishing has prob ably passed its peak, good catches continue to come in: tops for this Scorekeeper Little Leagu VFW Scores 13 Runs to Route Beaufort Elks The VFW Little Leaguers scored 13 times on six hits Thursday af ternoon to rack up a 13-1 decision over the Elks in a Beaufort Little League game.

Bluefishing is fairly good for the inshore boats; amber jack and dol phin are the major offshore fish. Good catches of mixed bottom fish are being made from the head boats, with plenty of sea bass, some big porgies, and an improve ment in red snapper.
