14th Steinlager I'A Lapo'A International Game Fishing Tournament

2010, May 18-22

Time to start planning for your trip to the tropical paradise of Pago Pago, American Samoa. Devastated by a tsunami on September 29, 2009, American Samoa has rebounded in a significant way. The Pago Pago Game Fishing Association is planning once again to host the Steinlager I'a Lapo'a Tournament this year. The 11th tournament of that name, this all-species extravaganza will follow close on the heels of the Samoa International Game Fishing Association's "Annual Game Fishing Tournament". 

The tournament has been scheduled for May 18 through May 22, 2010, and it has been lengthened by a half-day of extra fishing, and the addition of a day in which to relax and prepare for the closing ceremonies.
