the 15+ state record reportedly was caught thru the ice and the rod and real record of 13.5# was caught just down the street in a small bog pond just about 1 year apart...both those fish where brought here from a southern state...I lived in carver for 26 years and those fish are NOT native fish...the guys that caught them did nothing wrong...someone else brought them here ...how did the peacock bass that was caught at Webster lake get there???...it came up the river?...yikes!!!
I was hoping to be able to participate in this one but one of the few things that pulls me away from fishing took most of the weekend and didn't have time to finish getting my jon set up.
