I stand corrected, the email I got is incorrect.  This is the email I got this morning;

"....believe it...or not..

 43.6 lb World record Rainbow Trout.

 Check this out, just got these this morning. Here's the new world record

 rainbow. Caught off of Anvil Draw, Utah side, Flaming Gorge. What a monster

though, holy crap.. It's not even a mackinaw or even a hybrid, but a

straight rainbow. The pictures don't lie? I've never seen a rainbow anywhere

close to that big. All I can say is WOW!"
wish you many hook-ups

this is an old pic but i remember that there was some reason that some thought it shouldn't count. it was raised at some hatchery with steroids then released into the private pond they caught it in or something. either way its huge though

Quote below from ESPN Fishing http://sports.espn.go.com/outdoors/fishing/news/story?id=2901070

"The final tally after the 20-minute tussle to get the bruiser 'bow to shore: 43.6 pounds, 38.75 inch in length and a girth of 34 inches. Should the numbers stand, Adam Konrad will hold the all-tackle world record for rainbow trout, eclipsing the 42-pound, 2-ounce standard that was set by a boy, David White, in June 1970 on Alaska's Bell Island."[/color]
wish you many hook-ups

Anybody know where I can buy a few of those.  I'm going to Peck this weekend and need some bait.
