If that fish weighs 81#'s plus it'll be news to me, I saw a couple of mid sixties & this won looks smaller ,maybe bad camera angles. If I'm wrong big congrat's to angler hope Mc Reynolds syndrome does not rear it ugly head!! Probaby not, no big bucks to fight over, I THINK????

Looks like I was wrong on my initial statements, big congrat's to angler on not only that WR catch It's nice to see a hard core angler that puts in is time & reap those benfits on breaking one of the most prestigious sought after records in years!

You know what is really discouraging to me??? This guy catches what could be a world record fish and people are already pissing on his parrade.

How about congrats, nice fish...

Really growing tired of all the drama here lately. It needs to stop.

Thank you Gerry!! I dont post alot because all of this nonsense.. Lets keep it clean and for once say hey congradulations nice catch!! Dont be a bunch of jealous haters!!

[Gerry Zagorski]

Fishbone - I would not say "jealous haters" since that is drama in my book too.

How about supporting eachother instead of tearing eachother down?

Maybe giving someone the benefit of the doubt before making a public accusation?

If you weren't there or would not say the same thing to someone to their face then lets not post it here.

He waited 12 hours to weigh in and is not looking pursuing world record certification. Interesting.

I always thought that if the world record striped bass was broken that the internet woudl have to be un-plugged there would be so much finger pointing and drama! Will this turn into a Monica world record fluke fiasco???? only time will tell. could make for an interesting weekend on the fishing boards. $5 says someone on some board will claim that he is a commercial fisherman....
