Fishing for Brown Trout

Wow.

The Department of Natural Resources announced Thursday it has certified the 41.5-pound brown trout caught July 16 in the Lake Michigan waters off Racine as the state record for the species.

The fish was caught by Roger Hellen of Franksville. It already earned him the $10,000 grand prize in the Salmon-A-Rama fishing contest.
