The Tuna Club includes in its work for a higher 

 attainment of sport two branches, which were origi- 

 nally separate clubs: The Light Tackle, founded by 

 Arthur Jerome Eddy, of Chicago, and the Three-Six, 

 by Thomas McD. Potter, of Los Angeles, both anglers 

 of national reputation. They are now carried on by 

 the directors of the Tuna Club, each having as its 

 province the promotion of lighter tackle. The Light 

 Tackle branch has valuable trophies, which must be 

 fished for on nine-ounce rods and nine-thread lines. 

 The Three-Six Club demands six-ounce rods, not less 

 than six feet in length, and six- thread lines. 



Thus the Tuna Club with its branches represents 

 over fifteen hundred men committed to the lightest 

 tackle, — anglers who have given demonstrations of 

 their prowess by taking the largest fishes with tackle 

 so Hght that it is little wonder that the layman and

The Light Tackle Club, a branch of the Tuna Club, 

 with nearly one thousand five hundred members, gives
