A mom of two has hooked a state record-breaking catch while out fishing with her husband and kids on an Idaho lake. The humungous fish beat the prior record catch by a whopping six inches.
On Oct. 4, Hailey Thomas of Rigby, Idaho, went fishing with her family on Henrys Lake, a blue-ribbon trout fishing hotspot. The weather was fair and fishing was slow but, while raising the anchor in the afternoon in search of a better spot, Hailey unexpectedly hooked a heavy rainbow-cutthroat trout hybrid on her line, according to an Idaho Fish & Game press release.
