The second Los Vaqueros fishing record of 2008 was broken on Thursday, May 29 when Todd Brusco of Danville smashed the old mark by more than two pounds. Brusco's 12-pound catch was 2.21 pounds heavier than the old record set last year by Eric Sabye.
Todd was fishing with his friend Johnny G. in a rental boat, he said the fish took his lure as soon as he cast it.
" It took what seemed like an eternity to get it in (probably 20 mins) with a rather light pole and 8 pound test line. John netted it on the first try as it finally got close enough to the boat."
Todd and Johnny G. fish a few times a month at LV.
They returned the record fish to the reservoir.
In two years, the largemouth bass record has jumped by more than four pounds.
