Not a member here yet but active on the SOCO yak community, and not shore caught so it doesn't count for this thread but figured I'd share to get itch going...

I'll assume winter over fish. RI had a Marine Biologist John O'Brien (now retired) who did his masters thesis on Rhody's winter over population in the salt ponds. He gave our club a presentation about the topic back in the 1980s - it was really an eye opener at the amount of bass (and size) that he took in his nets.

Quite a few years back, my friend Tony Paliotti caught a 36# bass in Potters Pond on March 12th. Biggest holdover I have heard of although Nebe had some monsters one year in a canoe in another pond.

No boat, back in the suds.

My largest hold over was 42 lbs in February, but that was a freak, usually 20 lbers were frequent catches.
