[cool][#0000ff]My "reliable source" elaborated that the fish was caught by Sasquatch...using a whole leprechaun on a hook made from a unicorn horn.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Ain't you even a little bit embarassed to be making such a post without verifiable stats or pictures?[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I long ago quit trying to keep up with all of the rumors and urban legends about huge fish from Utah Lake. The Loy family, who has maintained a commercial netting operation for several decades, usually figures into most of the new nonsense claims. They have been credited with catching world record class largemouths, walleyes and of course catfish...including both giant blue cats and flathead cats. When any of them are asked about specific claims they guffaw loudly. Although I wouldn't put it past a couple of them to be behind some of that stuff.[/#0000ff]
