Priority1 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 It was a catch and release. I'm not sure how they could certify the weight. Maybe different category for catch and release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgafish Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Really Nailer, what was the wt. & location? And can you post a pic.? Thanks.It's actually been broken twice but officially only once. Roger Hellen caught a 41lb 8oz brown out of Lake Mi on the wisconsin side last year. Fish has to be 2oz or better to knock out the existing record.This spring a guy in New Zealand caught a 42lb 1oz fish. It was offically recognized by IGFA this summerPrevious photo is the catch and release record and yes it's a different category Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherman51 Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 from what I've been able to find out it is a new ohio state record caught off Geneva ohio and weighed in at 14.675 lbs. this isn't anywhere near the 41.8 fish caught out of lake Michigan. but its a nice brown for lake erie. and im still not sure about the facts, this is just what I've heard.sherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
