Two days after leaving Tagus we were cruising around along the shores of Narborough Island, trawling with the nets.
Two or three skiffs were near shore, some diving, some fishing and others dynamiting. Mother and Doctor Cady were trolling for big fish and suddenly Mother had a terrific hard pull, and for half an hour she had to "play" a tuna. It was 46 inches long, and weighed 46 pounds.
