  1. CONCORD, NH – On Feb. 25, Thomas Knight of Meredith caught an enormous lake trout while ice fishing in northern New Hampshire. The fish was certified as a new state record, eclipsing the one established in 1958. After a lengthy battle, Knight was able to bring the fish onto the ice and marvel at its size. An experienced lake trout angler, Knight knew that the prevailing record was 28 pounds and his fish seemed to be much bigger. After a few phone calls to some close fishing buddies, Knight made his next call to Andy Schafermeyer, a Fisheries Biologist with the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department. In order to certify a fish’s size as a state record, it must be inspected and verified by a biologist. The two met and began the process of measuring the characteristics that would certify this fish as the largest lake trout ever caught in New Hampshire. “I’m not sure who was more excited,” said Schafermeyer. “I knew the fish stood a very good chance of breaking the record.” The two men placed the laker on a certified scale that measured a maximum weight of 30 pounds and the fish’s weight exceeded that. “At that point, I knew that Knight had caught a new state record, but I didn’t know by how much,” continued Schafermeyer. The quest for a larger, certified scale was on as the two men drove around sharing the excitement of the situation. Finally, at a package distribution center, a scale with the proper state certification was located that had the capacity to measure a large weight. When the display finally settled on 37.65 pounds, the two men, who had only met hours earlier, shared a heartfelt handshake and pat on the back. As phone calls and text messages poured in, Schafermeyer finalized the remaining inspection and paperwork. https://manchesterinklink.com/enormous-trout-reeled-in-breaks-62-year-record/?fbclid=IwAR0gLU9PiI9BJ48LR09cIJxU_bDvli-QsiwApCMCO4D8G5-nr6Mr3ljY9Hs

  3. (CNN)Some national and state Democratic party leaders concerned about Sen. Bernie Sanders' candidacy are willing to risk a messy, brokered national convention this summer, which could be potentially damaging to the party, to prevent the self-described Democratic socialist from becoming the nominee, The New York Times reported. full story https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/27/politics/bernie-sanders-contested-convention/index.html
  4. I know for quite a while north of there 105 is a rail bed. Not sure about there thou.
  5. No, but he will have his strongest showing yet.
  6. At least someone ( maybe himself) had the decency to kill the suspect.
  7. BUt he will not. The reaction always comes a lot quicker then the action. The wealthy will find ways around it before it even becomes law. Then the middleclass will end up paying for it. If anyone does at all. But if he dosnt plan on paying for it , fuck it , lets have a party. I will not be paying taxes in 15 yrs.
  8. Same here. Shitholes selling for the same money as equal size decent homes. Only difference is the decent ones are gone in a few days.
  9. Mapleton, ME-- A 25-year old Pennsylvania man is dead after striking a tree on a snowmobile trail in Aroostook county yesterday afternoon. 25 year old David Over of Sligo, Penn., was traveling south on ITS 105 in Mapleton with a group of nine other snowmobilers from Pennsylvania at approximately 4:00 p.m. yesterday when he passed the two snowmobiles in front of him. Another snowmobiler riding behind Over followed him, and the two men were riding side by side at a high rate of speed when the two sleds made contact. The crash investigation initially suggests that Over overcorrected, veered to the left, came off his sled and struck a tree. Game Wardens and EMTs performed CPR at the scene in attempts to save Over, who was then transported to AR Gould Hospital in Presque Isle by Presque Isle Ambulance. Over died at the hospital from injuries sustained in the crash. The crash remains under investigation by the Maine Warden Service. No other information is available at this time.
