People have caught them before or Marine scientists follow their migration and study them.
All i wanted to know. Thank you haha. I clearly saw that is stated they can grow to 33lb but wasn't sure how they would know this if the biggest caught was 19.
Also it's a line caught reccord. Pretty sure no longline usage and other commercial gear.
So a 33lb one could h e been caught in a net at some point.
It says all tackle? Does this mean as in all bait/lure etc or all tackle as in nets longliners etc?

19 pounds is what? 9kg so how do they know they get to 15kg?? :crazy: :icon_lolz:
19 lb 4oz is the current IGFA record. It means the fish was caught using IGFA rated line and acknowledged by IGFA.
You can catch a bigger fish but it does not mean your catch will be on the record books. You may be able to catch a smaller fish yet it may end up in the record books. If you have further questions, please PM me instead.
