I saw the headlines about the guy who caught a huge striped bass in Alabama. I think it will be interesting to hear what kind of bait he used and how heavy his line was etc. I went to school with a guy who was jug fishing with his dad and they caught a 60 pound catfish. He said it was so big they had to beach the boat to get it out of the water. The striper in the picture is huge too and it makes you wonder if he didn't have to tow it in too. It will probably be a few weeks before a lot of information comes out about this new record striped bass. What a fish and what a day fishing.

He obliterated the old state record by 15 lbs. Not too shabby to break the world record by 2 1/2 lbs. either. That thing is a pig.
