WHITE, Piosidcnt The Freeport Tuna Club was founded and incorporated at Fre?-. port, L. I., in the year 1037 by a small group of sport fishermen who ■■ actively rishccl from this port—the first tuna club on Long Islimd.' Since its founding the purposes of the club have been to interest . and encourage members in all forms of rod and reel sport fishing, and particularly to stimulate an interest In tuna'fishing—to encourage, competition among the members and other clubs under a set of standardized rules, and to use all Jegitimato methods to protect the interests of rod and reel fishermen. Our challenge in 103D to the Biielle Tuna Club resulted in the formation of the U. S. Atlantic Tuna Tournament which now enjoys ■ a membership' of 4B affiliated game fishing clubs from the U. S. Atlantic Coast. Our club has enlred a team in every tournament to- dale, and will again enter a team in the 1968 tournament. The Freeport Tuna Club is one of the pioneer members of thu International Game Fish Association, and rcconfly became a mem ber of the International Spin Fishing Association. Since its inception, the club has conducted yearly fishing con tests, and has awarded prizes and trophies for outstanding catches by it.s members. Prizes consist of plaques or ihcrchandise that is donated by sporting goods and tackle manufacturers pnd dealers. The club now has 23 majqr . trophies which are held for the ■ current year. A plaque or replica which remains in the permanent possession of the winning member, is awarded in, conjunction wiUi: the trophy. ' ' u . Five club trophies will be awarded.each year. One fojr each of ‘ the following three species of fish; tuna, striped bass'and blueflsh.' These trophies will be awarded to the member boat owner captains (non commercial) on whose boat the largest of each of the above- mentioned species ore caught. Two additional club trophies will be awarded as follows: One to the member angler catching, the largest fluke, and one to the member angler catching the largest cod during . the 1968 .season. The rules applying to these trophies are listed in -this booklet under \Special Awards.\ Under \Club Records\ in this booklet you will find a listing of out,slanding catches made by members since the inception of the club in 1937. Catches made from Canada to Mexico, B.W.I., the Caribbean area, South America and Africa, as wet as the entire At lantic Coast are to bo found in this listing. • In the fall of 1966, after extensive research by the Property Committee and Board of Directors, a parcel of land was purchased - on Hudson Avenue, Freeport, facing Hudson Canal During the fall of 1967 and spring of 1908, bulkheading, piling, water, elcctneily, fence.and a ^ a l l service building were erected bn the site, Clutr Boat Owners will use the facility and it is hoped thrt further activities will be pursued atT'this location as the season develops. . ■\ ' In the spring of 1967, several club members proposed that we investigate the possibility of establishing a Fish Haven (or Reef) in the Jones Inlet area. Financial assistance -was provided by the Garcia ._ Fishing Tackle Corporation. The Town of Hempstead: Director of . - Conservation and Waterways, Mr. Howard Udell, became interested- and agreed to supervise the entire project. Seven battered and broken barges, loaded with 560 tons of dUcarded concrete pipe were sunk in an area 3.3 miles southeast of Jones Inlet .Loran bearings 1H4-4750 and 1H5-30B0). ' In the fall of 1967. an agreement was reached with Nassau'Coun ty througli County Executive Eugene Nickerson,' whereby all\ surr- . plus fish caught by club members would be given to the Nassau County Children’s Shelter and the Holly Patterson Home for the Aged. Nassau County’iwill transport the fish to the institutions from the holding stations which volunteered the use of their facilities; Chai^iin Eistung Station, Freeport Gold Storage, Hudsdn'Poinf FlsK-\ ing Station, and Mako Marine Fishing Station. ano the John P.
