Sandvik's Inshore Grand Slam on Fly

Askill Iversen Sandvik was fishing the flats of Cayo Santa Maria, Cuba, on June 25, 2022, when he landed this trio of premier inshore game fish. Askill began the day landing a beautiful permit on a crab fly and then followed that up with an impressive bonefish on a shrimp fly. Askill then released a tarpon to complete his IGFA Inshore Grand Slam on fly. Congratulations, Askill on some beautiful fish and an incredible day of flats fishing.

 

Herfel's IGFA Trout Grand Slam

In last month’s issue of the International Angler we learned about Tyrone Herfel’s impressive trout angling prowess.  He is the first individual to gain admittance to each of the four IGFA Trout Slam Clubs on both conventional and fly tackle. He recently added to that impressive resume with another IGFA Trout Grand Slam on fly. Ty was fishing the Big Thompson River in Colorado, US, on July 31, 2022, when he landed three beautiful trout to earn himself the slam. The brown trout ate a hopper fly while the cutthroat and brook trout took a stone fly. Congratulations, Ty on another slam, keep them coming!
