A kid I had as a student years ago got this at Beltsville dam about 30 miles from home. The kid is a fishing fanatic and well surpasses my angling skills at his age. He brought it into the shop to get its weight. 37# 2 oz. Got a picture in the shop but thought this one was more appropriate. Well beyond the state record of 53 lbs. taken at Raystown dam but I’ve never seen or heard of any from that lake any better.
Wow bk, that’s a monster fish to get through the ice. Must have had an 18” auger😁
