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.
