cleo929	Posted: 9/20/2009 10:35:08 PM Reply saw an article about a guy who caught a huge trout. they were genetically modified to grow instead of reproducing.escaped into the lake. world record. should the record be allowed? the guy's brother caught a 43 pounder prior. is it a good thing they don't reproduce? imagine landing one! my little wal-mart boat zooming around the lake?
breathinginSulfur	Posted: 9/21/2009 7:08:54 AM Reply yea this one I don't think so and they should get fined for releasing fish into lakes but it was in saskachewan and I don't know what there regulations are like.

Rag	Posted: 9/21/2009 5:57:10 PM Reply The 'genetic modification' is simply a triploidation process which most rainbow trout stocked in lower mainland lakes undergo. http://www.gofishbc.com/maxperformance.htm
breathinginSulfur	Posted: 9/21/2009 7:25:58 PM Reply dude just read a topic on it and 7 years ago the lake was a local commercial hatchery and the lake froze and all the pens broke open and thousands of small triploid rainbow where released into the lake, since the fish have been gorging on the large baitfish in the lake and have reportedly been putting on 7 pounds a year. I really want to go fish there.
breathinginSulfur	Posted: 9/21/2009 7:33:51 PM Reply Dude that lake should be like banned for like 2 years and let them get to like 70 pounds or something now that would be impresive.
cleo929	Posted: 9/21/2009 10:27:54 PM Reply that pic is his brother. last month he caught the 43 pounder. this pic is the more recent 48 pounder
cleo929	Posted: 9/22/2009 12:45:57 AM Reply reuters states about 10 years ago the net pens broke and released 500,000 10 to 12 pound fish. they are crossbred with steelhead. the twin bros were releasing 20 to 30 pounders trying to get the biggies. also it said male triploids will mature sexually eventually and interfere with diploid spawning. if barry bonds' record holds then this fish will be the record, but is not a bow, only half bow. if a huge fallow deer escapes and i get it, is that a record?
