[quote utahgolf]my question is, if fish I.D. is pretty tough than have they done genetic testing for some of the old records? would this have been a record brookie 20 years ago without all the internet questions and available resources?[/quote]
Probably would have.
Consider some of the record brook trout from places like Quebec, and Labrador -- areas where naturally occurring splake happen. Honestly, I do believe that some of those old "brook trout" records were misidentified hybrids. But, we really don't know, and probably never will.
