To see Tony. He seemed optimistic that he was doing better.

FWIW, Tony never did hold the all-tackle record. He held the "unofficial" shore record, and co-holds the state record with Charlie Cinto.

And AFAIK, Bertha is still the second largest bass ever taken from shore.

He was running the dropper because there were cod in the surf feeding on sand eels. And the bass hit the dropper, not the eel.

Rochetta caught his fish during a lunar eclipse, if memory serves.

What was the largest shore-caught bass? Rochetta's was by boat, right?

I once caught Rochetta's rod while yo yo fishing at the race.
