J.H. Pate Caught 17 1/2-Pound Rock Fish, April 12, 1925

A Real Fish Tale

Mr. J.H. Pate was an early visitor to the News office Saturday morning, and he proudly exhibited a 17 ½-pound rock fish which he had captured from the waters of the Neuse. The member of the finny tribe gave Mr. Pate a good battle but finally gave up and the Pate family will no doubt enjoy the best and largest mess of fish it has enjoyed in years. The attention of Mr. H. Brown is respectfully called to this “tale”.
