SALT WATER DAFFY by Philip Wylie

SALT WATER DAFFY

By

Publisher: Farrar & Rinehart

More stories along the lines of The Big Ones Get Away, as Crunch and Des, two grand Florida fishermen, go Hollywood. They have acquired an assignment to show Hollywood how big fish are caught. They in turn are caught in the net of hokum, but the story sees them through and back to Miami, basically untouched. Home again, they have their usual experiences with fishermen of all types and classes; if things don't happen, advises Crunch, just make up your own fish stories. The author takes his own advice in whopping fashion. This for the addicts of deep water fishing.
