New Record Walleye - FishNews - 05-02-2008
Montana's angling community received a big surprise when Missoula angler Bob Hart caught the new state record walleye from Tiber Reservoir on Nov. 18, 2007.
<br>Although Tiber produces good numbers of smaller walleye, it is not particularly known for producing trophy-sized fish. Hart's record walleye, measuring 35 inches in length and weighing 17.75 lbs., unseated Dan Spence's previous record by more than a pound. Spence's walleye was caught in Fort Peck in 2000.<br>
<br>Hart caught his record walleye shore fishing from a lawn chair.
