Below are facts in order of appearance regarding the three fish below.

1.img011 Mike Blackwood State Record 13lbs 9oz 1975-1996
2.img002 Bud Rowland Current State Record 15lbs 6oz, 2002-
3.img077 Jim Wallace State Record 13lbs 11.04 oz, 1996-2002 .....

My God those are some hogs!!!!!

Thats What I'm talking about, Fishing in a Suit!!!

WOW

Wonder if his boss ever saw that pic........you left early for what?????

Not only he's in a suit but he caught the state record in his driveway :eek:

Now that is a true Office Fisherman!

Hey Scott: Do you possibly have pitures 2 and 3 reversed?

Bet that middle one was a hoot on that fly rod.

Blackwood on top. Rowland on right and Wallace on the bottom. Most of us do not recognize Bud Rowland as holding the current record. The fish was released after she was photographed. Two others fishing nearby witnessed the weight on a boga, and verified it to authorities. To this day I still can not believe it. Would you release the state record??? Jim Wallace still holds the record in my book. It came on a Glow Colored Corky...

I agree who lets a state record go....and why and how can it be certified by a witness??? I can catch a 9lb trout call it 12lb have 4 buddies say they saw the weight and let it go....

And then I could hold the la state record????


In my eyes that record don't count

That is Rowland and the 15 pounder caught down south in the Lower Laguna Madre. The other 2 were caught in Baffin Bay. Where's W?????He always has something to say about Texan's fish and the way they take pictures and they don't weigh what the posters say,etc. If y'all want to see some true gator trout then you need to buy Scott's book. Best compilation of bigguns ever put together. Ooops, I see Waltrip showed up. And I agree with W and some others that Wallace fish is still the record, not Rowlands ( even though I believe Rowland's weighed what he said it did)

I must agree!

I doubt I'd release a 15+ lb. trout even if it weren't a record.

This isn't any different than the dude that holds the world record (17 lbs. 7 oz.) It was caught on the east coast of Florida. He and his dad were fishing when he landed it. They both thought it was a snook. :eek: They took it to a local store that had meat scales to "weight" it. When they were told it was a trout and that he had landed the world record....they used witnesses that (supposedly) saw the fish on the scales, took plenty of pics and it was certified. Luckily, the scales were "certified" scales. Here's the killer, tho...they ate the fish. :help:

Suit up! Let's go fishing!

Looks like office feesherman fare well in Texas! Must be an Old Simms suit ;)

Sounds fishy to me !!!!:*****::*****:

Sam Elliott must have caught that right before filming Roadhouse

Bud Rowland's TX Record
 

LMAO!!!
