Huge World Record Paddlefish Caught in Montana With Bow and Arrow
Fishing has been pretty slow for me this year. I have not had much success landing fish. Yet, Montana has seen multiple state records broken this year. Back in May, the Montana state record walleye was caught on Holter Lake near Helena, and weighed 18.02 pounds. In March, a new state record longnose sucker was caught, weighing 3.42 pounds. In April, a Billings man broke the Montana state record for largemouth bass, with a catch weighing 9.6 pounds. And, lets not forget the enormous Montana state record brown trout, caught near Conrad, that weighed a whopping 32.43 pounds.
Zach Brown took the oath of office before a small crowd on Wednesday morning, replacing Don Seifert, who has retired, as a Gallatin County commissioner.
Brownâs swearing-in marked the first time Democrats have held the majority on the commission since 1996. He will join Republican Joe Skinner and Democrat Scott MacFarlane on the board that oversees Gallatin County.
âI will discharge my duties representing those that voted for me and also those that didnât, and Iâll work my tail off and take this job incredibly seriously,â Brown said as he stood at a podium in the county courthouse. âGood government matters, public service matters and itâs an honor to have this opportunity.â
