[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON Jul-03-06 AT 10:25PM (EST)[/font][p]OK, I know there is going to be an argument and guys ticked off so lets start out by saying .. this just started this past week .. and Fishin.com is doing this on its own.. Fish and Wildlife is not involved.
We are starting a LAKE Record program. I think it would be nice to know the largest fish of each species caught on a lake.
We are starting with Cedar Creek Lake. IF we can get this going without too much Discord, we may decide to do more lakes.
Right now we have one official Weigh In spot on the lake.
That is the Cedar Creek Outfitters which is currently using a Hand Held Digital Scale... The same one each time.
We will post pictures with the fish on the Bump Board for length and a picture with the weight as best as is possible. IF you have caught a larger fish from that lake I apologize.. but we will accept it only if you send in a picture with a signed statement from 2 witnesses... and the picture MUST be clear and visible. I will submit pictures to Fish and Wildlife for them to verify the species if they can. NO Verification.. no Record.
If you take the fish to Cedar Creek Outfitters Alive you can release it once weighed and photographed, this is to encourage catch and release of big fish.

NOW
The first fish submitted is a 5 pound 11 ounce Bass 21 and 1/4 inch long. The fish was caught by David Hendrickson. Pictures are on the way to Fishin.com and will be posted when I get them on the Cedar Creek Lake Fishing Report.

We will accept submissions for Smallmouth, Ky. Spotted Bass, Catfish (Channel Cats), Bluegill, Shellcracker and Crappie ONLY. NO HYBRIDS, NO STRIPERS.. only fish stocked in the lake.
We are making that restriction to help enforce the State Regulation on not moving fish and to prevent stocking of some lakes by JERKS who are messing with the balance set up by Fish and Wildlife to provide the best fishing.

NOW LET THE ARGUMENTS COMMENCE.. lets see if this will fly.
