grab the net Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Anybody else hear the rumor of a new record, 9lbs 6 oz. Taken on a lakle in the Alex area. Late last week. Story goes, he missed the bigger of the two, caught the 9-6. I know the name of the lake, but will wait to see if anybody else can confirm.

hhguide Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 I heard the same thing fishing in a tournament this weekend on the Chain in Alexandria everyone was talking about it. I also know the lake and heard the same story so who knows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hhguide Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 haha thats whats funny about it the guy that "supposedly" caught it and had the bigger one get off and he goes around telling everyone the lake the everything. If I caught a state record fish see if I tell you all the details! haha lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellaBass Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 My buddy asked if I had heard it, because some guy was telling him.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammer Handle Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 He may mention a lake, but I bet it is not the one he actually caught the fish out of.So far, I think it is a big fish story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP Z Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Ah, the opener fish tale it is. Did the piggie first attack his trolling motor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grab the net Posted June 3, 2008 Author Share Posted June 3, 2008 If it is the lake mentioned, it is very possible. Big fish taken out of it every year. Agape, where are you? confirm or dispel this fish tale. If it is true, I guess the other thread on where the next state record will come from is answered. Central MN.

ricqik Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 I always question one thing. If a said person caught a state record bass but names a different lake as to deter people from pressuring the original lake, wouldn't that be falsifying info on the record application. That would be automatic disqualify as a state record for falsifying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Ek Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 I heard the same "dock talk" at both tournaments we fished this weekend. I guess we will just have to wait and see. The lake mentioned does hold pigs, but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricqik Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 If it's official, it'd be announced on the DNR site. Looks like it's another story, just like every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthothand Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Hey guys I'm the one that caught it but I chose not to officially register it. It weighed 9-8 on my de-liar. I didn't think to take any pictures until after I'd already ate it! Oops! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammer Handle Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 How could you have caught it when I did?It was 10-12 and I decided to let it go as it was illegall hooked (not in the mouth).Funny, someone claims they caught a world's record bass and used a simular story. The only picture they took was the guy "straight arming" a bass. Nice fish, but the straight arm made it look silly. And, not a world record.
