THETARPON 103 



Sixth — Double line, the length of the leader only will 

 be permitted, except in the case of Tuna, Swordfish and 

 Marlin Swordfish, in which case double line, not to ex- 

 ceed 15 feet in length will be permitted. 



Seventh — Handlining the double line or the use of a 

 boatman's handline snapped on or in any way attached 

 to the leader will disqualify the catch. The boatman 

 or any other person, other than the angler touching any 

 part of the tackle, except the leader, while the angler is 

 fighting the fish disqualifies the catch. 



Eighth — A fish shall not be gaffed unless leader is 

 within reach of boatman. Throwing gaff, harpoon or 

 lilly iron at fish when leader is not within boatman's 

 reach will disqualify the catch."
