State records
Some notable:
White Bass record= 6.81, Amite River
Channel catfish= 30.31, Minor’s canal
I have a hard time believing this.
Caney Lake top 10 rankings: Largemouth bass 6 out of top 10, Black Crappie 5 out of 10, Redear Sunfish 8 out of 10. Caney was a beast.

That 47.5# striped bass would have been a blast to catch.

I wish someone would either top the #1 Speckled Trout or it just get booted completely since it's practically confirmed a fraud.

I volunteer to take on this burden. Someone please let me know where she's hiding.

The 11-lb white trout always boggles my mind.

Baton Rouge University Lake producing a 15+lb bass is funny as hell looking at the lake now.
and I can't imagine what a 20lb Choupique would do my fishing gear. The 3 and 4lb ones turn my spinnerbaits into pretzels and straighten hooks.

Big speckled trout often have very few spots. I imagine it might actually be a speckled trout that managed to grow out of all its spots instead of a true white trout.

What is the story here?

We have quite a few posters on those lists

The 150lb Cobia has always blown my mind. That’s massive

I thought Caney had the state record Channel Catfish too. Kenny Cobb caught a huge one back in the 90s fishing with a waterdog.
I've caught a Redear Sunfish that would make the book and probably the state record Chain Pickerel.

I believe it was caught in a gill net. Or at least people think it was since you can see pretty obvious net markings on the fish.
Posted on 5/25/21 at 9:52 am to ctiger69
Kind of surprising how little it would take to get into the top 3-5 with gafftop and channel cats.

Gigantic. Here's the 172lb world record speared off of Brazil for reference.

TLDR Version: Rumored to be caught in a gill net in Florida and hauled here, you can see the net line around the middle of the fish, and where all the slime/scales would've been scraped off near the tail when they pulled it out the net. Claimed to have come from Lake Hermitage when Hermitage was a very poor trout habitat that barely held female trout, let alone record setting female trout.

Yep could have had #3 gaff top. Placed first in Houma oilmans years ago with a 7lb 15oz caught in big bayou dularge. Did score me a Calcutta reel and a nice print though

Yep, definitely can see the net line around the middle. How the state allowed this to go into the record books is plain stupid.

Here's a link to a better, more detailed explanation. The link to the article is dead(Advocate) but the article is copy/pasted into this old OB thread. Good read and a pretty solid case that it's a fraud.
