Thanks Andy for getting us the link.

Yes, as I did write into the gentleman quoted from IGFA and let him know many people from the Sonoma County area know these people and know them better than to let a scam like this be treated as the "real deal".

You should check out the IGFA forum and see one of the stories how Javed wrote a whole story about a 16lber (could this be the same fish????) he caught then released since he knew it would not be the record. Funny how in the story he wrote about knowing the records.

Hope Freshwater Hall of Fame revokes the record. Not that they're recognized as anything but it would help their image a bit.
