"Mostly sheepshead, some groupers and snappers, trout, bass, and whiting. For sheepshead you want clam bait for the others, mullet is best. Rig up your rods and I will bait for you." I had a bamboo bass-rod, with a large reel: the captain had a light salmon-rod, with click reel.
I went to sleep in a camp-chair and absolutely ruined my reputation as an ardent fisherman. One afternoon, just after I had made a cast, I felt the same old strange vibration of my line. I was not proof against it and I jerked. Lo! I hooked a fish that made a savage rush, pulled my bass-rod out of shape, and took all my line before I could stop him. Then he swept from side to side.
He had spoken of it once to his wife, with a craving for her usual sympathy, only to meet with a surprise that seemed carelessly disapproving. "Why, you have that old one of your father's and the bass-rod already; I can't see why you should want another. You always say you can't get off to go fishing as it is."
