According to Outdoor Life, Wherley hooked the fish using a foot-long trout at a favorite spot near Safe Harbor Dam. Realizing he had just landed a potential record, he hustled to Columbia Bait and Tackle, which had a state-certified scale. Jeff Schmidt, with the Pennsylvania Fist and Boat Commission, was there for the weigh-in, and also inspected the catch.“The fish got that big by living a long time,”Wherley said his previous best flathead catch was 44 pounds.
“I’ve told everybody in my family I was going to catch a state record someday, and here I did it,” Wherley said. “That’s incredible.” If you purchase a product or register for an account through one of the links on our site, we may receive compensation.
