LIVE UPDATES: Pro-Palestine Protesters Begin Encampment in Harvard Yard
Veteran tuna fishermen from all over the northeast had to bow to Rodman A. Sharp '51 recently when he handed the season's biggest fish--an 850-pound bluefin at Wedgeport, Nova Scotia.
The fish, one of 531 taken by sportsmen based at Wedgeport during the season, fought for one hour and 45 minutes before Sharp boated it with a 39-thread line.
The sophomore's father, Alton B. Sharp, is the donor of the Sharp Trophy for the annual international Tuna Cup Matches, held annually at Wedgeport. This year's contest was won by the United States team, which downed three opponents.
Sharp's catch seems certain to crack all deepsea fishing records for Harvard undergraduates by a wide margin.
