We got a call from somebody that has a 2.2 pound Brook Trout in their boat this morning from the Cumberland River.
Fish and wildlife has the record has 1 pound 5 ounces on their website. There's a YouTube video with Tim Farmer with a record of 1.83 pounds from last summer.
Does anybody know if the 1.83 still stands? If you do please let us know.
Probably will be a record but pending the official Commonwealth of Kentucky blessing.
Grider Hill has a pic of it on Facebook

Messaged with Lance Sasser last night and I think he is more proud of the 10 pound Brown.

Maybe I should have asked first, but is it ok to add links from Facebook when it's just for information and not an ad?

True.. LOL I go back to the very first version of the fishin.com board I think. Still, I don't want to skirt the rules so thanks for the clarity. It was just easier than trying to download the pics and re-upload them.

I'm curious about the process of keeping a potential state record if a fish that is considered catch-and-release only? What if you kept it and it's not a record? How does the state look at this?
That's one helluva brown trout!

There is a 15-inch size limit on brooks on Cumberland Tailwater so this fish would be legal.
Got some texts from Lance last night. He helped a client land a 14 pound Brown yesterday and he sent me a pic. He also sent a pic of a 26 pound striper landed from the lake last week. I'll have to see if I can get them off my phone and on to here...
