Although Tiber produces good numbers of smaller walleye, it is not particularly known for producing trophy-sized fish. Hart’s record walleye, measuring 35 inches in length and weighing 17.75 lbs., unseated Dan Spence’s previous record by more than a pound. Spence’s walleye was caught in Fort Peck in 2000.

Hart caught his record walleye shore fishing from a lawn chair.
