.82, set over the weekend, on the MDWFP website... Look in the fishing reports....
I find this hard to comprehend . I have caught several from this lake in excess of a pound and back yrs. ago there were some that I woulds have thought over 2 lbs . Guess nobody ever turned one in . Back in the 70's trace, lake monroe and lamar Bruce was my dad's favorite places to bream fish . There were giants in all three .Quote:

I have talked to quite a few lake managers who have told me they didn't talk to anyone at the MDWFP and tell them what is written on there...
The MS state record bluegill is 3.45 lbs.... state records here. Mississippi State Fishing Records
I have caught lots of bluegill at lake lamar bruce bigger then the one you posted....lots bigger

exactly , only explanation could be that no one ever turned one in . Maybe they started over after redoing the lake. :donoQuote:

Was there Messing around Tuesday we had seen the news report so we weighed the biggest one of the few we caught it weighed .70 and wasn't that big. They said the lake Records started over when the lake re-opened. Biggest bass so far is only 6 pounds and something.

Sounds to me like someone could set the bar pretty high then right off the bat. Iffin' not, gonna keep going thru these records of dink fish, if it's kids that's cool, but if a grown man is certifying a 1/2# brim as a lake record, than I would say that man has too much time on his hands :twocents
I have seen my very false report written here, copied onto mdwfp website! Did really awesome on one lake, said it was tunica cutoff and voila, crappie fishing was awesome at Tunica that week! RoflmaoQuote:

Stocking program with Trout and Walleye has been succesfull, you can keep the trout any size, but the walleye, some of which are 3 to 5 pounds must be released immediately. The Walleye are brood stock for Pickwick and Bay Springs.......which make no sense whatsoever.....even the park ranger thinks its stupid.

Old folks posting on old thread!
I owned the point of land in the horse shoe cove for years...I have a 2.8 Redear on the wall..I know for a fact bigger ones than that had been caught. Doc also liked red wigglers on the bottom..
Dumb phone..I hit the wrong key..2.7, not 2.8lb
