Posts: 827 Location: Minneapolis,Minnesota | Saturday I caught a new Minnesota state record and a possible line class world record on Lake Bemidji. The fish was released after a couple pics and swam off strong. It hit a red, white and blue raddog spinnerbait off a deep reed edge. The fish wasn't registered but was just released back into Lake Bemidji to give the next musky angler that hooks up with her a thrill. Describing the fish wouldn't do it justice, I will post pics as soon as Papa Joe sends them to me tomorrow. She's a true giant!!!!  | ||

| That is hilarious! Bemidji has some GIANT rock bass. I went to BSU and my freshman year there I caught one from the pier that I know was a record. No one that I was with would believe me (the record at the time was just shy of two pounds) and I really didn't want my name recognized as the rock bass fisherman and all the fame so I released it. Only to look at the record the next day and show my buddies and they said, wow, that thing had to be a state record! Oh, well, what could have been! LOL | |||

| The record is higher now, I believe closer to 3 pounds. I really didn't want all the glitz, glamour, fame and fortune to come with catching a state record fish, especially a rock bass. Well, OK, I didn't want to keep getting crap from my buddies because they didn't believe me in the first place. Oh well, it was such a beautiful fish, I wanted it to be released to fight another day and keep the genes in the lake. | |||

Posts: 829 Location: Maple Grove, MN | I caught a couple Rock Bass over two lbs in the Crow river in central MN when I was a kid. It wasn't until years later that I learned they would have broken the state record. The tasted great though. | ||
