Fly Rod Giants

Seems like everyone loves a big shark story, if you noticed the play Dr. Martin Arostegui’s 385-pound lemon shark on fly got this past week. Of course even Europe finally took notice, sort of. Finlay Wilson gives a Scottish perspective on the catch and world records in general on Scotsman.com. “On Tuesday, the International Game Fish Association certified Arostegui’s latest catch as a world record and the largest documented fish caught on fly tackle, eclipsing a 356lb goliath grouper caught in 1967.”
