After 75 years, Colorado has a new state record for brook trout.
Tim Daniel, of Granby, Colorado, caught a 7.84-pound brook trout in Monarch Lake in May. On Friday, Daniel’s catch was recognized as a state record breaker by the Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW). |

The previous record for largest brook trout was set in 1947 with a 7.63-pound fish. That was the state’s longest-standing fish record, officials said in a press release.
Daniel told CPW officials that on May 23, he went fishing with his friend Karen and his dog Moose. |
