All-Tackle Length World Records (Fly)- Fish caught according to Flyfishing equipment and rules.
All-Tackle Length (fly) IWFA records are kept for the longest fish of each eligible species caught according to the IGFA International Flyfishing Rules on any Tippet Class up to and including 10 kilograms (20 pounds) and released alive. Fish that are caught on flyfishing tackle on a Tippet Class exceeding 10 kilograms (20 pounds) will be considered for the All-Tackle Length (conventional) category.
20-to-1-Club
The 20-To-1 Club is a legacy program that recognized members for their accomplishment in catching species with light line. The weight of the fish exceeded the lines class by 20 times. With the focus on conservation and, thus, the elimination of a weight fish class effective January 1 of 2018, this program is no longer offered. However, the IWFA continues to recognize these women for their amazing achievements.
