That's half as old as the fabled bass record (22-pound 4-ounce largemouth caught by Georgia farmer George Washington Perry in 1932) that spawned the counterculture of record bass chasers. The Konrads' pursuit of the world record rainbow is no less a story of utter obsession and dedication, transposed to trout.
"We basically trained for this, it was a life pursuit and it took a lot of sacrifice," said Adam, who, like his brother, is an auto mechanic in Saskatoon. "My girlfriend broke up with me because she couldn't handle me being out on the lake all the time. But it's okay, I have another girlfriend now, as well as the world record."
"We basically felt like nobody was putting the effort into fishing the lake to its full potential, so we said, -¿what the hell, we'll just go for it," added Sean.
