WORLD RECORDS: hot catches December 2016
Ecuadorian angler Juanfelipe Adum – age 10 – caught this impressive 12.24 kg (27 lb) Pacific snook (Centropomus spp.)
on December 3rd that could potentially earn him the new Male-Smallfry world record. Adum, an experienced young angler,
needed only 10 minutes to subdue the hard-fighting snook after it crushed the diving Rapala lure he was trolling from
the Makaira, off the coast of Salinas, Ecuador. If approved, Juanfelipe’s recent snook will best his own record
of 9.98 kg (22 lb) that he set back in February of 2016.
