I have hooked one that went 55+ but he spit the hook back at me right at the boat. I dont think Pineveiw Tigers get much over 52-54 from what I have caught and heard being caught. Let the kid have his record if it does weigh out. Only way to claim the record is to harvest the fish. Maybe If somebdy put a 40lb certified scale up there at pineveiw a few of these monsters could be realesed. That is if your lucky enough to have a live well capable which I doubt most do. Unfortuanatly you have to go to Ogden to weigh a fish this size!That fish lived a long life and was taken legally. I assure you that there are plenty left that size in the lake. From what I have seen the DWR is doing a good job planting Tigers and there is only more to come.
