chris.brock Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 I think they say "world record" for added drama, but it's a line class record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I did see the world record Laker mounted in the Winnipeg airport many years ago-----a huge fat bellied football just over the 100 lb mark caught in a net I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioFisherman Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 http://www.lakersunlimited.com/gallery3/Lakers-Lunkers/File0009 In a net though, I thought Great Bear or Great Slave lakes were known for huge lakers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokestackLightnin Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 FYI, any IGFA record must be caught on a rod 40" or longer so a tip-up would not qualify for an IGFA record. Not sure who is the source behind the "tip-up world record". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushart Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Maybe that record was started by manufacturers of Tip ups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
