Congratulations to James Lucas on breaking the state-record by catching a 1-pound, 14-ounce skipjack herring on the Sandy Slough.



LINCOLN COUNTY, Mo. – James Lucas of O'Fallon became the most recent record-breaking angler in Missouri when he hooked a giant skipjack herring on the Sandy Slough using a rod and reel. Sandy Slough is a Mississippi River backwater area located next to the Missouri Department of Conservation's (MDC) Sandy Island Conservation Area.
The new "pole and line" record skipjack herring caught by Lucas on Oct. 25 weighed 1 pound, 14 ounces with a length of 18 inches. Lucas used a white marabou Road Runner jig to catch the skipjack.

Conservation makes Missouri a great place to hunt and fish.
