Summary

Today we are going over myths of world records as we sit down with Meredith who has over 180 world records. She has tons of world records on fly and she knows so much about the ins and outs of world records. There are lots of questions such as “Do you have to kill the fish?” or “What do you have to do as far as leaders and knots?” Well, listen up as Meredith leads us through the details of the IGFA and how to set world records. Setting an IGFA World Record requires an angler to follow very precise rules to document a catch.  The leader has to be tied a certain way and the line that you use has to break at the correct poundage.  Many people think it is impossible to set an IGFA World Record in fishing but it really is quite possible if you learn the rules.  Meredith McCord has over 180 World Records and has learned through trial and error, advice from mentors and from the IGFA itself, how to play this game within the rules.  She is happy to help other anglers to identify a record and set up their tackle to successfully set a world record. I have always been listening to suggestions for the podcast and today is a perfect example. Not only was it recommended that I sit down with the amazing Meredith McCord, but it has been a long time suggestion that I provide video podcasts. Today is the first skype interview that I have been able to video and it is with Meredith McCord. You can check it out on Waypoint and on YouTube.
