IGFA World Record on 1kg line!

Jack Crevalle

From the IGFA website…

“…what Richard Hart did on May 21st when he landed a 10.01 kg (22 lb 1 oz) jack crevalle (Caranx hippos) while fly fishing Barra del Colorado, Costa Rica. Hart skillfully played the jack for an hour, before it was landed, weighed and released…”

The trophy fish swam away in good health and the record application has been lodged for the mens 1kg (2lb) tippet class record.
