His buddies should have the fish and the rod mounted together.

State record fish can bring in a few bucks for the angler.

For instance, when I held the light tackle record for bluefish (9 lb
bluefish on 2 lb test), I got $250 from Shakespeare for the rod, $250
from Penn for the reel, $100 from Trilene for the line and a $50 gift
certificate from Kastmaster for the lure. Didn't last long - some gal
from Salem out did me significantly - 13 lb bluefish on the same rig -
made out better as I understand it.

I wonder what Mattel will give him for catching a state record fish on
a Barbie rod and reel. :)

Who is going to own up to supplying the line?

That isn't much of a pond. I'm very surprised it held a 21# catfish.

Hell, he could have left that catfish on the line long enough for his
granddaughter to land it!

A friend has a pond filled with catfish. He feeds them daily, some kind of
pellets he throws out there. The catfish come to the top to feed, and
they're big - probably in the 10-12 lb range. This pond is probably about a
third of an acre. Not very big.

Why not? Does playing a fish for a few minutes make it not a record?

A single angler has to handle the fish.

AFIAK, in order to be "certified" as a record, only ONE angler may touch
the rod/reel/equipment until the fish is landed.

Oh! I didn't know that. When out with a friend one day, trolling, my friend
pulled in a 45' striper. He did the rod and reel work, but I did the net
work and pulled it onto the boat. I'm wondering if his citation was
legitimate. Sure hope so, or I'll have to go take it away from him (it's
framed with the picture), tear it up and throw it away.

He's a pretty big guy.
