Want to see the world record striped bass?












World Record Striped Bass. The new world-record striped bass was caught on the night of August 4, 2011 in Connecticut waters. The striper was boated by Greg Myerson and weighed in at 81.88 pounds, which edges out the previous record of 78.8 pounds caught in 1982.


ABOUT THE WORLD RECORD STRIPER



The current world record striper, the fourth Greg has caught, was landed on August 4, 2011 off Westbrook, CT. Tipping the scales at 81 lbs, 15 oz., Greg caught this beast of a fish on an eel using his patented RattleSinker™ and his signature Rattling technique. It was the fourth time Greg has broken the world record. He set out from his dock at Pier 76 Marina, where you can see a mounted version of his trophy at Jack's Bait and tackle.











While you are there don't forget to stop in and say hello, to Lucy, that is!
