Nice fish, John!
If you change your mind, (when and if, you ever find one), about the state record on Whitefish, contact the F & G and merely tell them; "I told flybinder about the fish and HE believed me!" and that should be about all you need, to get into the record books.
While still living in Idaho, I was involved in game of gentlemanly card playing, one Saturday night down in Boise. Several of those, that are in charge of such things as "State fishing records" still have not cleared up "certain debts" with me. You should have no problem with entering your fish. Or, you may get arrested, not sure how angry they still are about loosing.
Also, if you DO use my name to get your fish entered into the records, please just say the name, you don't have to really let them know where I am. Good luck. The jails serve meatloaf on Wednesdays, if things don't go well and it's homemade.
