Houtz Catches 44-Pound Drum at Oregon Inlet, Aug. 2, 1923

Fishing Party Returns from Successful Trip

A.B. Houtz, O.F. Gilbert and L.C. Lassiter returned Thursday from Oregon Inlet where they have been on a three-day fishing trip. The trip proved very successful and quite a number of drum, trout and blue fish were caught. Mr. Houtz pulled out a 44-pound drum on the last day of the trip. The party went on Captain Midgett’s boat, “The Onella,” which makes a specialty of fishing trips to the Inlet.
