RvR state record Eel ????

[PA..posse]

Was out last Saturday night fishing for Bows around 2:00 am..had a big time hit... took about 10 minutes to get a good look at what was on the other side of the 4 pound test...To my surprise I had the biggest American Eel I have every seen.. So we put her on ice and started to look for the nj state record found some information about Njs fresh water Eel record and it said that the record was 41 inches .. 6 plus pounds took her in and measure her she was a thick 36 inches ...We took her down and put her back into the water and let her go.....when we return home looked some more and found out the record is weight only......she was heavy but I will never no???? good time all around ..........
