My first IGFA All-Tackle World Record was this Klamath Largescale Sucker. I’ve yet to catch another one.

Species: Klamath Largescale Sucker (Catostomus snyderi)
Location: Sprague River, Sprague River, Oregon
Date: November 6, 2016

While I occasionally reference and link to articles I’ve written for the Herald and News or other newspapers on my blog, I try to generate new content for this site. But every now and then, I’ve already told the story of a new species in a way I like and don’t want to change, and the story of my first IGFA All-Tackle World Record is one such story.

Check out this story, as originally written for the Herald and News  by clicking this link and feel free to check out my record by clicking here.

My first world record came in late 2016. I was fishing during November in a place that hadn’t been open to fishing during that month in my lifetime and was closed the very next year. Further, the species is incredibly rare (I’m the only known angler-caught one in decades), so this might hold awhile.

Tight lines!

  10. Halo dan terima kasih atas informasi Anda? Saya pasti mengambil sesuatu yang baru dari sini. Namun saya memiliki keahlian beberapa poin teknis menggunakan situs ini, seperti yang saya alami untuk memuat ulang situs banyak kali sebelum saya bisa mendapatkannya memuat dengan benar. Saya bertanya-tanya apakah web host Anda baik-baik saja? Bukan berarti saya mengeluh, tetapi waktu pemuatan yang lambat kali sering akan memengaruhi penempatan Anda di google dan dapat merusak skor kualitas tinggi Anda jika iklan dan pemasaran dengan Adwords. Yah saya menambahkan RSS ini ke email saya dan bisa melihat lebih banyak konten menarik Anda masing-masing. Pastikan Anda memperbarui ini lagi segera ..
