Colorado Has a New State Record Crappie

For a state that isn't known for them, this sure is a nice record crappie! 

Colorado is a fly fishing state. People travel from all over the world to chase down huge trout in beautiful streams. However, trout aren't the only fish Colorado has to offer.

Fesstus Stalder of Greeley proved that when he broke a 27-year-old state record. Weighing in at 3 pounds, 7.84 ounces, Colorado now has a new state record crappie.
