EVER HOPEFUL

Gary Caruso reels in his lure at Great Point on Sunday afternoon, hoping to qualify a catch in the first-ever Nantucket Inshore Classic fishing tourney, a month-long event hosted by the island's tackle shops. Blues, bass, bonito and albies are the noted fish for some nice prizes in the contest. With easterly winds all week, some anglers have said that the fishing has not been great, but they

are going to keep on it until Saturday's deadline. Some day, someone is going to ask the fish

what THEY think. For more on the tourney go to Page 24.
