Rizzo Posted July 8, 2021 Report Share Posted July 8, 2021 quote from the article: “it was the biggest brown trout I have ever seen.” um considering it is a world record...no kidding Ridiculous fish.

I didn't think triploid fish farm escapees were eligible for records, wasn't a Bow caught and disqualified a few years back ?

I think the official world record bow from lake Diefenbacker is a triploid. However, I haven't seen any evidence that this brown is a triploid.

Reminds me of the mutant rainbows I catch around Parry Sound. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave524 Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 Either way, whether this brown is triploid or not, I don't agree with Frankenfish being eligible for records. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looking at it screams triploid to me. Similar to what the Konrad boys pull out of Diefenbaker. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
