The previous world record was also caught from Lake Diefenbaker in 2007. Coincidentally the fisherman that caught the 43 pound, 10-ounce trout was none other than Sean’s twin brother Adam. Sean’s fish sparked major debate over the legitimacy of genetically-engineered rainbows from Lake Diefenbaker. The farm-born trout’s are also known as triploids. Triploids are created with three sets of chromosomes which make the fish sterile and allows them to channel their energies towards growth rather than reproducing.

The fishing purists are all up in arms over this issue and word is they won’t be voting either of the brothers for the Hall of Fame.

Some of my friends went fishing this past weekend at the Outer Banks and needless to say by this picture they were very successful. Check out the size of that Bull Dolphin…DAMN! Congrats to Tad, Eric, Jeff and Chops for pulling in that many fish and I can’t wait to try some of the goods.
