Cadillac, MI: Tim Roller, owner of Ultimate Outfitters guide service based out of Cadillac, MI was guiding good friend and long-standing client Tom Healy (At Right) of Rockford, MI on the morning of September 9, 2009 on Michigan's Manistee River when the fish of a thousand lifetimes entered their lives.
Roller is a former resident of Bay City and a graduate of Bay City Handy High School.
Tom was casting a black on silver Rapala Shad Rap searching for King Salmon when he hooked the new Michigan State Record, and pending World Record, brown trout. The fish was examined and verified by MDNR fisheries biologists Todd Kalish and Mark Tonello.
The official certified weight is 41 lbs. 7 oz.
This breaks the former Michigan state record by more than 5 lbs. The existing world record was caught in Arkansas in 1992 and weighed 40.4 lbs. Upon completion of the application process, the Healy Brown will shatter that record by more than a pound.
