ROD & GUN By GENE WIRE (N. C. Division of Game and Inland Fisheries) COVERING THE WATERFRONT Aycock Brown, sportsman-writ er about Morehead City, foresees improved salt water fishing in vicinity of derelicts which fell prey to the submarines around “torpedo-junction” during the war He hope sthe government or some body will make charts available to skippers of sportsfishing boats to that guides can take their parties out to the ships wrecked along the coast. Fishing over wrecks is nothing new, he says. The British tramp steamer, Thistleroy, a cotton laden jhip which foundered on Lookout Shoals five or six miles southeast cf Qape Point prior to the first world war, has been a favorite fishing spot for the past two or three decades. It was here that the first sailfish were taken with rod and reel by anglers of More bead City and Beaufort. So, some time soon we’ll drop down to "splice the main-brace” with bro ther Brown and “shiwer the tim ber” over some of the prize places be‘s picked out. HIGH AND DRY— John D. Findley, North Carolina Game and Fish Commissioner, came hack from the North Amer ican Wildlife Conference which convened in New York recently with an alarming note about Dr. Ira N.

Dr. Gabrielson is the retiring di rector of the U. S. Fish and Wild life Service.
