It may take a while, but every record will eventually be broken.

An angler in Minnesota recently broke a decades-old record after reeling in a large muskie. While the fish was caught in late November, local officials have only just confirmed that the fish has set a new state record.

Nolan Sprengeler caught a 55-pound muskellunge on Nov. 22 during a fishing trip to Millie Lacs Lake, according to a press release from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Sprengeler was out with two friends when he reeled the fish in around 8 p.m. The previous record had been set 64 years ago.
