I believe the IGFA would set a Fresh Water Record seperate from a Striper from the Salt, as they do on most all species.
They do have a reputation for fighting hard but what would one expect, fishing with fresh water tackle!

Seriously though, I suspect they don't use as heavy a tackle set up as we do out in the Rips and Beaches of the Cape and Islands.
