We landed on the inland side, and then walked over to the beach, which is very wide and smooth.

Here we set to work to fish.

Old Menendez baited our lines, and told us what to do.

It was new sport to us.
First, we took off our shoes and stockings, and rolled up our trousers, so as to wade out in the shallow water.

We each had a long line, one end of which we tied around our waists.
