Found this on another forum:

AUSTIN, Texas — A Dallas man's catch from earlier this year was just
certified as a world record by the International Game Fish Association.

Josh Hill, 22, of Dallas caught the smallmouth buffalo on March 29 on a
self-tied fly and fly rod at the Pedernales River. It was certified at
20.89 pounds, 33 inches and had a girth of 24 inches.

A buffalo fish on a fly? I wonder if he soaked it in worm juice
first?
