World record crappie Beaver Lake?

Has anyone heard anything about a state record and a possible world record crappie caught out of Beaver on Saturday?
I heard somthing on the local a.m. radio show today saying it was caught and was in possesion of the G&F.
I NEED TO SEE PICTURES!!!

I haven't heard a thing, but I'll look around and see what I can find out.

JT,
If it's true and you get a pic. Please send to me.
Keep in touch

I heard some rumors, but I figured it was just someone pulling my leg....what a.m. station did you hear this on? I can contact them and get more info...thanks----Caleb

I heard it on KURM. I don't know what show it was, I was just flippen through.
I would imagine it would be a few days before they released anything on it due to a possible world record. I'm sure we're talkin just a few ounces if that.

Send an Email to the area GFC fisheries biologist. He should know if it's true .

Caleb,

Hi! I don't know about this... I forwarded it on to Mike Armstrong, Chief
of Fisheries to see what he knows...

That would be exciting news if true...

Cheers, Kim

We should find out one way or another! I have not seen anything in the local newspapers yet. That radio anouncer may have got the wrong news or the wrong lake! It is a.m. radio after all!

I think I recall seeing where a new Missouri State record was caught recently. I believe in a private lake and it was a Black Crappie.:confused:

The local outdoor writer knows nothing about it as well as the baitshops. I'm going to say the radio station must of recieved bad info or a prank!
Very unfortunate, it would have been great for Arkansas!
