Re: A couple of calls to the Fish Lab:
Did he really have to kill a 10lb largie? I mean, think of all the eggs she will produce every year.

That's how I feel about killing a bass. When you kill a big cow bass like that - you take away everything she was ever going be and all that she was going to create. She would have grown into an even bigger bass, laid thousand of eggs that contained her superior genetics, and would be the catch-of-a-lifetime for every lucky angler that caught her and placed her back in the water. But alas, she is dead. Now she is just a pile of rotting fishy flesh sitting in some dope's refrigerator while he learns it's not a record and he can't afford to get it mounted. It'll probably be out in the trash by next week. There is a guy in Trenton who claims he grew out a bass to nine pounds in a 500 gallon aquarium, then released it. I can't vouch for the veracity of that story, but that is what he said. .

Re: A couple of calls to the Fish Lab:
A number of years ago, the NJ State Record Black Crappie was caught in private farm pond by an angler who was missing one of his ring fingers.
So we used to say, “That fish was hand fed: 1/8 oz. jig sweetened with a ring finger.” |

Re: A couple of calls to the Fish Lab:
I recall Bob S. telling me of an angler who tried to pass off a Lake Ontario Chinook salmon as a brown trout, claiming to have caught it in NJ. Just one of MANY stories he had of 'anglers' trying to claim some record or another. Sure do miss that man!
