Darn nice fish. Did I not notice where they were caught or was it not mentioned? I've never fished for walleye but am not too old to start. Once again..very nice! Mike

Thanks for posting. Walleye are on my list of fish that I want to learn to catch. Those are some awesome walleye for any state let alone Idaho.

Great fish!
I would assume that if he is going to put it in as a state record, he will have to declare where it was caught. So no secret about it, why not just say?

I dont think it is really a secret. The only lake in Idaho that can produce walleye like that is little salmon falls res. between Jackpot, and Twin Falls.

Not true for the short time there has been walleye in Oakley there has been some rather large fish coming out of it. Ive heard of to fish over 13 pounds and there was an article in the south Idaho press last summer with one approaching 14. Its only a mater of time before the new record will come from Oakley the mystery part will be whose name caught it [fishin]

LOL, If yall just look in the background on the bill board it kinda gives it away!!!! Hint to the line where it says Twin falls highway 30!!! Its Salmon Creek Falls, these guys been getting them good there. They have a page on them with the eyes over 10 pounds, they have a couple good ones on it and the eye he his holding on his aviater was out of there also. I've seen that pix before on some other sites. GOOD EYE wish it was me [sly]
Here is the link to what i was talking about very good fish indeed!!!

Holy Cow! You guys look like you've got it figured out pretty good. That's awesome! I'm more than a little jealous, considering I've never even caught one, let alone a toad like that!

Wow those are some great fish. I dont even want to know where on the lake just an idea of on what. Seems this year up the narrows I was doing best with black or at least dark colored baits. Want to know if the trend is the same.

looks like this fish didnt come from salmon falls after all. acording to several newspaper reports it actualy came from oakley res.
