Old news but I thought some of you would like to see these photos.

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#000000]Dan Steigers of Juliaetta caught a 9.72 pound Smallmouth Bass in Idaho's Dworshak Reservoir on October 28. This fish is the new Idaho State Record. Steigers also held the previous Idaho state record Smallmouth at 8.31 pounds, caught in Dworshak Reservoir on October 14, 1995. [/#000000][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][#000000]The world record Smallmouth was 11.9 pounds caught by Kentucky angler D. L. Hayes on July 9, 1955, in Dale Hollow Lake along the border between Tennessee and Kentucky.[/#000000][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][#000000]FYI: Knowing the currently extreme high densities of small kokanee in Dworshak, it's very possible someone could break Dan's new record within the year, and could very well get close to the world record. There were many reports of 7-8 lb smallmouth this past summer, and we expect to see even more next year. [/#000000][/font]
