According to their Facebook page, what would currently be the state record for a rainbow trout was recently stocked into the waters at the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center near Athens, Texas.

Here is the video of it:



The current Texas state record rainbow trout weighed in at 8.92 lbs, was 26.5 in. long, and was caught on the Nueces River by Timothy Boehm.  The state fly fishing record stands at 7.83 lbs, was 25.5 inches long, and was caught by Rob Burlingame, also on the Nueces River, using a Wooly Bugger.
