Interesting. I just saw the current world record rainbow. It was caught out of the Kootenai river here in Libby MT a few years back. It is hanging in a real estate office here. I was going to transfer grams into pounds to check and see if it broke the record. I believe the Libby rainbow was 33.5 lbs. From the size in the picture, I dont think the NZ fish beat it.

If anyone is curious I can call The real estate Co to get the exact poundage
