Expedition Series

The International Game Fish Association was born from the spirit of adventure.

IGFA’s founder Michael Lerner spanned the globe in search of great fishing and great knowledge. Lerner was joined in his quest by the likes of Ernest Hemingway, Kip Farrington, Alfred C. Glassell Jr. and Tommy Gifford. These early years of exploration were considered the golden years of fishing, exploration and science.

Today, the golden years are back with the IGFA Expedition Series. The IGFA Expedition Series is your opportunity to fish together with some of today’s legends of the sport and explore some of the richest fishing locations in the world. The 2010 Expedition Series includes fishing the world-famous Pacific sailfish run at Casa Vieja Lodge in Guatemala and fishing for the mighty blue marlin and majestic black marlin at Tropic Star Lodge, Panama.

Only the International Game Fish Association can bring together legends of the sport and world-class fishing destinations to produce fishing adventures of a lifetime. Now in its third year, the IGFA Expedition Series offers the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fish with and enjoy the camaraderie of modern legends including: marine artist and conservationist Dr. Guy Harvey, fishing celebrity Mark Sosin, IGFA World Record holders Enrico Capozzi, Gary Carter and Raleigh Werking, Captains Karl Anderson, Thomas "Bark" Garnsey and Ron Hamlin and other living legends of sportfishing.
