State Record Brookie

[quote Bigphilj]The angler who caught the world record, might not be interested in the record -PBH. Thats the problem any more everyone is so intent on being the best and having their name in a book. Just like big game the first thing people ask is- what's the score. I'm not nocking anyone who gets their records scored and measured. Just be prepared for those few people to discredit you and and your prize. (I would have kept it) That said I would be interested in some of our states records. They have no girth/length listed. Who accepted them as records. You think the state record cutthroat was verified on a proper scale? Did you even need a witness to the measurements being taken? What about pictures?[/quote]What you say is very enlightening. Guess we just have to take the old records as truth. Kind of like DNA testing finding criminals innocent. One thing for sure though, Milton's brook trout WAS a brook trout! No splake or tiger trout around Utah in 1971, unless there was a chance natural hybrid in fishlake.
