fishing Is just before the strike. and
as you strike. There must have been
at least 20 tuna in the school, the

to 800 pounds. When the boat was
about 100 feet in front Of the school
they all seemed to see it at once, and
disappeared from the surface only to

hook, at which he took wild plunge

Fishing tie Tuna

HE Atlantic tuna. as far
as know, has never
been landed with rod and

been landed by harpoon-
ing; but the Pacific tuna,
which is found off the
California coast, is regu-
larly captured by big
game fishermen. These
Pacific tuna are perhaps

22o yards of the No. 80 line

the New Jersey coast, and some as
far north as Gaspe. in the Province
OF Quebec. and they are also seen on
the coast Of Newfoundland; but !
shall confne myself to Nova Scotia
and particularly to the east coast of
Cape Breton. where the two places
that have fished for tuna are sit
uated. namely. Ste. Ann Bay. and Mira
Bay. The former place is about 35
miles northwest Of Sydney by water.
and the latter place is approximately
Is miles southeast of Sydney by rail-
way The outer bay at Ste. Ann Is
about seven miles long by six miles
wide at the mouth, but there are two
Islands beyond the southern promon-
tory at the north (Cape Dauphin)
that really make this bay almost two
miles longer. There Is also at Ste
Ann beautiful inner harbor with
