South Florida fisherman Ryan Alvarez caught a giant snakehead on April 23 that’s been certified as a new world record.⁠ ⁠ The International Game Fish Association highlighted the record fish in a post Sunday. It noted that Alvarez’s great snakehead (known locally as a bullseye snakehead) weighed just over 17 pounds and is the new all-tackle world record for the species. According to the IGFA’s post, Alvarez was fishing a canal in Pompano Beach when the snakehead hammered his Z-Man chatterbait.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in profile for the full story 🔗⁠ ⁠ #fishing #fishingtrip #fishingseason #snakehead #florida #recordfish #IGFA #floridafishing #outdoors #nature #outdoorlife⁠ 📷: Ryan Alvarez⁠ Story by: dac.collins
