IGFA Records For September 2008

The biggest news at IGFA last month (as far as I’m concerned) was a record striped bass caught within a few hours of where I live. I had heard about this huge fish on the local news a couple months ago, but I wasn’t able to find a picture until today.

Nova Scotia striped bass

    Armed with a Rapala Magnum lure while fishing Canada’s East Bay, Christian LeVatte, of Sydney Forks, Nova Scotia, landed a striped bass (Morone saxatilis) on May 25, weighing 26.25 kg (57 lb 14 oz). It took the young man 30 minutes to land the fish for a possible boy’s junior class record. The current boy’s junior record is 57 lb 0 oz caught off Isabella Beach, NY 10 years ago.

Jack Lake Fishing Report, August 21-22 2004

We headed directly to the spot we planned to fish. Prior visits to this location had led us to believe muskie could be located here. We cut the motor a hundred yards away. A cool breeze drifted us perfectly into position. I tied on a Mepps black fury (Musky Killer) with a black bucktail. Jon did the same. The smell of muskie was in the air
