The IGFA stands for World Record Fishing
The 74 years’ worth of data we have collected in keeping fishing world records – data that anglers like you have submitted with their catches – has long been utilized by researchers to improve our understanding of our aquatic and marine resources. Recently we have expanded our data collection efforts beyond World Records. Data collected through new programs like IGFA’s Great Marlin Race and IGFACatchLog are being shared with scientists around the world to better manage our precious resources.
However, more collaboration with scientists and policy makers is needed to safeguard access to abundant fish and healthy waters in years to come – and that’s why we ask for your gift to support more and better fishing worldwide today.
