I have seen a picture on facebook that there was a 20.3 lb walleye caught in the past few days at Last Mountain Lake saskatchewan. Waiting to see if its true and a new record.

Default 20 lber

Not true i know the pic and also someone who knows the angler 13 lber
There's another one going around also from Lk Wpg but its 32 inches ans about a 12.5 to 13.5 lber
they say 15 .
This goes on every year i'm surprised the Pike Picture that has been caught in every state and province
hasn't gone around again yet .....it's due

And if nobody has ever seen a true 13 pound fish plus well then yes they do look Huge and easy
to come up with some over estimated wieghts.

Did it look like this? 32" about 15lbs.according to Donovan and others that know him. Awesome fish though.

Not photoshopped...simply a trick with the extended arm and camera lens angle.

Still a heck of a fish though. Anyone would be proud to catch that beauty.

First of all, I think people need to not worry about extended arms on photos as I don't want to see a fisherman as the focal point of a picture. The fish should be the focal point.

This walleye was never promoted by the fisherman as anything but what it was, no photoshop, nothing deceptive. Huge walleye that with knowing this body of water and the thickness of this genetic strain of walleyes, 15 lbs is well within reason. They are such big footballs up there and usually the larger fish are being caught in early march adding a full belly of eggs.
