An Idaho fisherman earned bragging rights after he reeled in a record-setting trout in Utah.
Sidney Cellan, of Soda Springs, Idaho, caught the 48-inch trout at Flaming Gorge Reservoir in Utah on July 3, Fox 13 reported. He went fishing with a guide from Creative Fishing Adventures.
"It weighed 57 pounds. It took about 30 minutes to bring in," Cellan told Fox 13.
Cellan posed in a few pictures with the trout before tossing it back in the lake.
He released it "so somebody else can catch it."
"You know if I kill all the fish that I catch then means there's going to be less fish for other people to catch," the fisherman said.

"Record fish alert! On July 3, Sidney Cellan of Soda Springs, Idaho, set a new Utah catch-and-release fishing record at Flaming Gorge with this massive 48-inch lake trout," the Facebook caption read.
"Way to go, Sidney!"
