Story
The Fishing Geeks, identical chins in Canada have set the world record rainbow trout on June 5 2007 at Lake Diefenbaker, Saskatchewan. The final tally after the 20-minute tussle to get the rainbow to shore: 43.6 pounds, 38.75 inch in length and a girth of 34 inches. Adam Konrad now holds the all-tackle world record for rainbow trout. He was casting 100 feet from shore using an orange, 4-inch Mepps Syclops spoon on 6-pound line. He broke the 6-pound line-class rainbow record of 31¾ pounds and testing high to 8 pounds, broke his brother's record of 34½ pounds.
Most of their fish are released however this one made it to the table. Lake Diefenbaker is a huge lake, not a trout farm as such.

if you put it back
then it will grow bigger and someone else can break your record
bit of a catch 22
