Hawaiian Angler Nets Record Butterfly Peacock!
Dania Beach, Florida¾The International Game Fish Association (IGFA) has announced the approval of a new Hawaii line class record on 4-lb test line. The butterfly peacock bass was caught in Kilauea, Kauai.
Jack N. Gushiken, of Kilauea, caught his 4-lb line class state record peacock bass on September 30, 2000, while casting with light tackle. The trophy fish weighed 4 lb 7 oz filling the vacant line class record.
There are still 13 vacant Hawaii freshwater line class records remaining in the 4, 12, and 20-lb categories. A complete list of all 50 state freshwater line class records and the species recognized in each state is available free from IGFA. All state freshwater line class records are located on the IGFA website www.igfa.org. There is no fee for IGFA members to submit state record applications. Non members are charged an application fee of $35, which includes all processing and administrative costs, a state record certificate and a one-year membership in IGFA.
The IGFA State Line Class Record Program is separate from each state’s all-tackle record program, where rules vary from state to state. Anglers are allowed to release their potential record catches alive after weighing, photographing and measuring their catches.
IGFA is a nonprofit membership supported conservation and record keeping organization, founded in 1939, with members in over 120 countries. The association’s headquarters are in the 60,000 square foot IGFA Fishing Hall of Fame and Museum in Dania Beach, Florida.
