From IGFA Headquarters in Dania Beach , Florida:
After standing for 33 years, the All-Tackle world record for yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) was first shattered by Mike Livingston on November 30, 2010 with a 183.7 kg (405 lb) catch, and then again by Guy Yocom on September 18, 2012 with a 193.68 kg (427 lb). Both fish were landed off the coast of Baja.
IGFA Trustee Mike Farrior and President Rob Kramer will present the latest yellowfin tuna All-Tackle World Record certificate to Yocom and his captain, Greg DiStefano, at the upcoming Fred Hall Show in Long Beach, California. The presentation will take place on the Ultimate Saltwater Experience Theater stage at 2 pm on Thursday, March 7, 2013.
Buena pesca,
