Default Re: New World Record Striper Caught-Can Anyone Confirm

That is a huge fish. Its a shame that this guy caught this possible record fish and everyone instantly doubts its size, weigth, how it was caught, ect.
This spring I had my two personal best fish one was 41 and a week later a 44.
I thought the 41 was huge but the 44 did not phase me until it hit the scale. I could not believe that this fish was bigger tham my previous.
The reason I found was that the first fish was longer and skinny giving it a bigger appearance while the second fish was shorter but fat.
Like this fish it may not look real long but that gut alone must weigh 15 pounds.
Congrats none the less.
