IGFA Guatemala Expedition Filling Up Fast:
April 10-18, 2010
Former IGFA President Michael Lerner recognized how little was known about the creatures in our oceans. The scientific world was convinced that life first began in the ocean depths, but almost nothing was known about marine flora and fauna. In 1936 Lerner embarked on a series of expeditions that would evolve into five years of unprecedented exploration and research. He began the expeditions in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, then in 1938 embarked on the Australia-New Zealand Expedition and finished the Expedition Series off in 1940 with the Peru-Chile Expedition. The International Game Fish Association was born from Lerner’s adventurous spirit. Lerner spanned the globe in search of great fishing and great knowledge. 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 begins with fishing the world-famous Pacific sailfish run at Casa Vieja Lodge in Guatemala on the dates of April 10-18, 2010.
