Bruce Cunningham never considered himself much of a fisherman, but he’s now a state recordholder for a striped bass he caught at Bull Shoals Lake.
“We knew it was big, but we didn’t realize how big it was until we got it in the boat,” said Cunningham, a Fordland resident who was fishing last month with his two younger brothers.
Here’s a video listing all the winners of our June Weekly Fishing Gear Giveaway.
Congratulations to all the winners and thank you to all that entered!!
There’s a new Rhode Island state striped bass record and it’s owned by Peter Vican. His monster catch weighed in at 77 pounds 4 ounces which is one pound shy of the world striped bass record. Peter is not new to setting records as the old record of 76 pounds 14 ounces was set by none other then Peter Vican himself.

A seven foot long, two foot wide “sea monster” washed up beneath the Brooklyn Bridge over the weekend. Some have described it as having the scales of a fish, body of a serpent, head of a pit bull and size of a large alligator.
Fishing in the Bay Area all my life it’s obvious to me what it is. Do you know what this “sea monster” is?
UPDATE:
This sea monster was confirmed to be an Atlantic Sturgeon by the Riverhead Foundation for Marine Research and Preservation.
