FISHING NEWS: New Virginia Striped Bass State Record

I received a first hand report from Richard White, Jr. on the monster pending new Virginia State Record striped bass caught yesterday. Way to go guys, what a sick catch! Check this fishing report out,

"We went out with every report not sounding good. We were on the Bada Bing with Capt. Tim Cannon from Pungo and I was mating from Chesapeake.

My father and brother-n-law drove down Fri morning from Brentsville, VA. We had good markings of bait of off Cape Henry but the bite was very slow. We caught one dog shark and a couple of hours later we had a rod double down with dead weight pulling. There was not much of any head shaking going on and when Cary was about to wear out then we got color and he broke the surface and the head looked like he was going to
swallow the boat. Fisherman Cary Wolfe showed very little excitement as we netted the beast.

Once in the boat it looked like the paparazzi was on the boat with us and the unbelievable catch was something we could not take our eyes off of. The beast weighted in at 74lbs even and 561/2 in long. My five year old grandson, Sebastian White, and Father-n-law Fred Wolfe's great grandson had to compare himself to the fish. A catch of a life time!

More fresh new served up later this week. Until then, get out there and do some fishing. The striped bass bite has been on fire off of Virginia's Eastern Shore and the Bluefin Tuna bite red hot off Virginia Beach.
