RUN OF BARRACUDA
Two Large Catches Made-Tuna Still
Terrified


CATALINA, July 1e-Yesteriay was an
other good day for small fish and a poor
| one for the large game. There was q
close attempt on the barracuda record.
The launch Sunbeam was chartered and
everything made ready for big days
sport. The barracuda were found in I'm
mense schools, and whenever these schools
were struck It was followed till the Ash
| went down ip the deep water. When
Avalon was reached It was found that
there were forty-one barracuda and one
yellowtail on board. The young ladies' on
the boat proved themselves not bad fisher
women, despite their tendency to scream
every time a fish was hooked. Those on
board were A. c. Moore and wife, c. E.
Bierley and wife. Miss 8. Heinzleman, Miss
Leola Allen. Miss Helen Day. c. o. Shaar
J. Taylor, with Jorgstorff at the helm.
The same boat took out another party
to Seal rocks. Master M. H. Landers and
friends caught forty barracuda and two
yellowtail.
The tuna were In shore last night. but
of the half dozen parties out mono had
strike. The tuna drove large numbers of
flying fish high and dry on the beach at
Banning Beach.
The launch Santa Ana was chartered
yesterday by Ben Ogden and wife. A run
was made to the isthmus and then on to
the west end, stopping for lunch at How
lands.
Mrs. c. W. Smith and daughter, accom-
panied by Mrs. Tomilson. were out for
barracuda in the afternoon, and made
catch Of seventeen in three hours and
half.
The ladies of the Sayorana club gave a
charming sailing party on board their
sloop, the Dolphin, yesterday afternoon.
The trip was straight out to sea, where the
swells are to be found In all their glory,
and where there is woe for the poor sailor
or the weak stomach. On the way out the
ladies' of the club entertained their guests
by singing salt sea songs, and as the tack
was made for the return to Avalon re-
freshments were served for such as felt
inclined. A delightful sail was the
unanimous verdict Of the lucky guests.
Those on board were Misses Edith WIFE,
Evelyn Vile. Edyth Copley M Lane Lind
sey, Fairbanks, Mrs. Corbin. Messrs. Tur-
ner, Jones. Lutz and Trainor.
