Forget the 50's - a 61 from Rhody?

I posted this elsewhere yesterday - Bud8 - musta missed ya...

Just got back from Ericksons B&T where the owner told me to check the cooler. I know he wouldn't if there was anything less than a 50 in it. He asked me to guess the weight so I picked it up and it was freakin' HUGE. Biggest bass I've ever lifted I guessed 50 long by 33 girth and 58 pounds - well it went 49x34 and 61. Well, a thirteen year old kid caught a 61 pound bass within 100 feet of shore - incredible....
