The Wachusett Reservoir in Massachusetts is home to some impressive lake trout, but fishing there comes with a twist: anglers can only fish from the shores, as boats are not allowed. Earlier this year, in April, the Massachusetts state record for lake trout was broken twice in just two days. Specifically, it was the catch-and-release length record that saw these remarkable catches. What’s even more intriguing is that both anglers who broke the record were friends with Jeff Evans, the angler who set the previous record last year with a 37-inch lake trout also caught at Wachusett.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds.
