Dan189 Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 I read somewhere that the 25lb walleye caught somewhere in Tennessee, (which is recognized by some but has since been disputed) had a length of 42". Still can't find the length on this 22lber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngie22 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I'll head down again tomorrow if I could... monster fish 'round dem Ozarks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CANOPY SAM Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 That's a really fascinating read! Cool story. Ya know', it's not uncommon to see 13, 14, and even 15 lb. + eyes in the Red River of the North up by Selkirk. I even heard, but can't verify, that right after we left there a few years back, someone boated a new Manitoba provincial record from the area we were fishing. The fish was said to weigh 20 lbs.! I can't even imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Here-Kitty-Kitty Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I would love to see an eye that size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

croixeyes Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 That record in TN was debunked and the current record is the 22 plus that came from Greers Ferry.The Greers Ferry fish was 35inches long and girth was 26 and a hlf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunflint Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 My wife and I have been talking about retiring to Arkansas for a few years now. When the time comes. All I need is a bunch of good walleye fisherman moving in on my winter grounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charley Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I think I first saw that fish in an In-Fisherman magizine in the 80's. It was a fat and I mean pig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
