BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A state-record goldeye caught by a 9-year-old North Dakota angler might qualify as a world record.<\/p>\n
Brayden Selzler, of Velva, reeled in a 4-pound, 12-ounce goldeye from Lake Audubon on Friday. It shattered the 1998 state record and might eclipse the world record for a kept goldeye of 3 pounds 13 ounces.<\/p>\n
That was caught by Gary Heuer of Aberdeen, South Dakota, in Lake Oahe in August 1987.<\/p>\n
The Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame is the keeper of world records. Spokeswoman Vicki Musiala (myoo-zee-AL’-uh) says Selzler would have to apply for a world record and meet all of the qualifications to take Heuer’s record. Selzler plans to apply.<\/p>\n
Heuer says he won’t be disappointed if he loses the record because it would mean someone else had some good luck.<\/p>\n
