Abstract:

J. Grayson Neal is a hosiery manufacturer in Marion. In the winter Neal goes to Florida to compete in fishing tournaments, such as the International Tarpon Tournament, where he took first prize in 1935. He holds a number of records and recently caught a 521-pound sea bass with a rod-and-reel. It is the largest sea bass ever caught with that type of equipment.
