Induction of the MN State Record Walleye
Minnesota's state-record walleye is
home!
LeRoy Chiovitte's state record walleye was donated by his family
to the Gunflint Trail Historical Society.
Chiovitte's, big walleye was caught on the Seagull River where it
enters Saganaga Lake. The walleye was caught on May 13, 1979, on the
Seagull River, at the end of the Gunflint Trail. The walleye was 35 ¾”
long, 21 ¼” girth, and weighed 17 lb. 8 oz.
