Kathy Rounds of San Diego, long ranger and rep for Izorline and Accurate, has been awarded two world records from the IGFA. The records are for All-Tackle and 30-pound class line. The catch was made at Clipperton Atoll last April 13. The 29-pound, three-ounce bluefin Trevally (the species official name) was caught on a Salas 7X jig, 25-pound Izorline, an Accurate reel and a Calstar rod. Following is the species description as posted on the IGFA's official site:

"Cuvier & Valenciennes, 1833; CARANGIDAE FAMILY; also called blue spotted jack, starry jack, blue crevally, omilu, bluefin kingfish. The bluefin trevally is widely distributed in the tropical and subtropical waters of the Indian and Pacific oceans. It can be found on the Pacific coast of America from Cabo San Lucas on the southern tip of Baja, California, Mexico, and the Islas Revillagigedos and Tres Marias to Panama."
