IGFA Report

New world record catches from the IGFA

Sep 28, 2009

By IGFA (More articles by this author)

Prince Frederick, Md., USA angler Robert LaVey M.D., guided by Richard Young, landed a cubera snapper (Lutjanus cyanopterus) on Nov. 19, weighing12.47 kg (27 lb 8 oz) while fishing on the major river systems in Belize the Sibun. He was using 3 kg (6 lb) class line with mullet as bait. For four hours and 40 minutes with the thin line LaVey carefully fought the fish to the scales. The current men's IGFA line class record is 24 lb 12 oz (11.24 kg), caught on January 20, 2002 from the Manatee River in Belize City, Belize.
