    walleye record

    Neal Leier’s walleye caught on May 18 broke the longest-standing state record fish in North Dakota, one that stood for nearly 60 years. (Photo courtesy of North Dakota Game & Fish Department)

    The new North Dakota walleye record caught early Friday morning and within hours it was certified, eclipsing a record that stood since 1959.

    In North Dakota, where walleye is king, Neal Leier has reached fishing royalty.

    The Bismarck angler not only broke the state’s longest-standing fishing record, but also it’s most sought-after.

    The walleye caught Friday morning from the Missouri River near Fox Island weighed 15 pounds, 13 ounces and measured 32 1/2 inches.

    How many times do I have to say this….look at the pose. Arms extended to make the fish look bigger. This is an 18” fish at best.

    Plus, the Missouri River is not in North Dakota. The name says it all.

    I’m sick of all this fake news.

    /this is a joke nhamm

    Congrats to the angler, what a great fish!!!

    For a more above board geography, the Fox Island landing is right in Bismarck. Spent many a day in that area and would have never guessed a new record would come from in town.
