IGFA 2017 Hall Of Fame Inductees/ Larry Dahlberg

The IGFA ( International Game Fishing Association) recently announced their inductees to the IGFA Hall Of Fame.  Included in these inductees is friend Larry Dahlberg.  Many know Larry from his television show "The Hunt For Big Fish".  This is one of the few shows where multiple species throughout the world are shown.  Not just the same old show after show of bass or walleye fishing!  Larry has fished in over 80 countries catching a wide variety of species. Larry along with friends from Shimano helped put La Zona on the map when he was guided years ago by Hector Bradanini. I still have numerous articles Larry wrote in "In-Fisherman" magazine years ago. To this day, the La Zona episode is my favorite
on his TV show.   He was inducted into the Freshwater Hall of Fame in 1996.  Joining Larry into the Hall of Fame this year is bass fisherman, Rick Clunn, Billfisherman Peter Fithian, Light tackle angler, Mike Levitt, and billfish biologist Dr. Eric Prince.  Over the past few years I have been able to meet, become friends,  and discuss fishing with Larry.  Congratulations to Larry and the other 2017 IGFA Hall of Fame inductees!
