Walleye Angler Lands New Colorado Channel Cat Record

From the InDenver Times:

Mike Stone was fishing for trout and walleye at Aurora Reservoir on July 26, when he dropped a floating jighead, tipped with a nightcrawler worm, into the water . . . [and claimed the state-record for channel catfish].

Stone’s catfish measured 37 inches in length and weighed 35.22 pounds. That’s almost 2 pounds heavier than the previous record of 33 pounds, 8 ounces, caught in 1994 by John McKeever at Hertha Reservoir in Larimer County.

Love seeing records getting broken. I bet he wasn't expecting that at all.

That is a beast, and Aurora res. does not give kitties up often, if at all. You might hear of less than a dozen caught a year from there. He put in his time and got a major reward for his efforts.

That is one hell of a catfish... and what a suprise it must have been since he wasn't even going after catfish.

Koldkut - this cat obviously ate the competition. Cannibals, cats are.

He caught that on 6-lb. test!
I'd get it mounted too.
