Hi all,
Was just reading on the Great Lakes forum about the Record brown being caught by a 7 year old.
Anyhow there are some categories that can be targetted for those 10 and under on the board that could get you a record!
There's a list on www.igfa.org
Some rules and stuff required but for some catching these species could be a great opportunity to hold a record.
Good luck.
Carlco
something for the younger ones...

Neat idea to help get the kids interested in fishing. It isn't just 10 and under (smallfry program), they also have a junior program (11-16 years)
Just read some of the rules. Interesting thing about treble hooks used as trailer hooks, they are not allowed:

MikeSometimes anglers catch a fish with a treble hook and bait. That is a violation of IGFA rules. Treble hooks are acceptable if they are free-swinging on a lure, but not if they are used with bait. Also, anglers sometimes use a “stinger†hook- a treble hook dangling behind an otherwise properly baited hook. Again, this is a violation.
