FISHING TALES FROM

TOLO HARBOUR

Adventures With A Big Fellow-And A Little One

(By Our Special Correspondent)"

Many #sh stories have been written and more have been told about all the fishing grounds in every part of the world. This story, or I should perhaps say these stories, I am about to write, concern Tolo Harbour, and fishy though they may sound, they are nevertheless true.

REVOLT IN SLAM

Rebels Gaining Ground

'Singapore, Oct. 24.

News from Siam is most con- citing There are many reports that the rebels are gaining ground. The latest message evading con- sorship is that the King ·and Queen have left their country seat at Huahin and are going to Sin- gora, in south Blam, being afraid the rebels may capture them."

It was a dog shark, one i of the kind that the Chinese are so fond of, and when, we weighed it, the scale showed 90 catties. It was killed by the simple expedient One week-end I was invited to of dragging the net ashore and stay in a friend's bungalow and I leaving our friend to die of the looked forward Very much-to-a-opposite number to drowning. pleasant week-end as I had been. informed that there would be, in addition to bridge and poker, some Ashing, and purpoises hunting with a shot-gun in a row boat.

I had been told quite a lot about the fish in this particular corner of the New Territories long before I even knew where Tolo Harbourį was, and I had wanted very much to see for myself whether the tales I had heard were true or other wise.

Arriving out there on a Saturday afternoon, we first settled down to a very hearty lunch. This was followed by a game of bridge and at about 4 p.m. we were told that it was time to go for a swim, "to work up an appetite for tea." This was done, and I need hardly tell how heartily we set about the tea

and cakes. ".

As I am writing a fish story and not an account of what we had to eat, I will just mention that we played about till afttr dinner when we went out in a boat, completed with one of those bright lights, to see what fortune awaited us. I confess that personally, I did not meet with much success, for I only managed to catch one fish. A member of the party very politely said that the poor thing was so fed up with life" that it, decided to commit suicide. Anyway fishing was distinctly poor that night, so we decided to turn in and try our luck again the next morning. Be-

This put us in good humour for the rest of the day especially as we were ready for friend porpoise. Sure enough he made his appear- ance shortly before noon and we went out in a small motor boat after him. He was too quick for us, for he popped up for only a traction of a minute and was down again; but the greatest difficulty was that we never knew where he would come up again. After half- an-hour's fruitless chase, we gave it up but it was fun while it lasted, especially as we had a certain

fellow who said he never missed a shot in all his life, and all the Ave founds he fired went about twenty yards off the mark.

Besides ita sharks and porpoises Tolo Harbour is mainly famous for its jelly fish, which are extremely large, very numerous and most unpleasant bathing companions. Apart from that Told Harbour is just the scene as anywhere else about here for fishing, and we have never seen either Tunney fish, or octopt or the sea-serpent, though the ordinary brand of sea- snake, a nasty poisonous fellow, is to be found once in a way,
