The new rhode island striper record belongs to East Greenwich angler Peter Vican He landed a 75.4-pound striped bass, a new state record approved by the state Division of Fish and Wildlife. Block Island Live Eel
but funny enough the RI Dem site has it listed as 76.14 caught by him jul 2008. i think they need a new web designer. |
About his last record: He initially weighed it at Twin Maples (at the time the scale was certified to 50#) and then at Snug Harbor. The SH weight was used (75.4). John Sweinton had his scale certified to 100 and the original weight was recognized (76.14).
