Help us keep the world fishing | World Records

Since our inception in 1939, recognizing angling achievements has been at the foundation of the IGFA. Now, more than 80 years later, we continue to celebrate and recognize incredible angling achievements from all over the world. Chronicling angling achievements is the cornerstone of our organization, and we continue to expand in that role.

We processed 548 IGFA World Record applications from 42 different countries across the globe. We also added 30 new eligible species to the popular All-Tackle Length World Record category!
