Alot of great names mentioned but most of them fished back in the day when the surf was full of 40-60 pound fish and you would fall over them in 2 feet of water! Since the decline of the striper and the moratorium I would have to say that anyone who can go over 50 pounds on a regular basis post moratorium would have to be pretty darn good considering there are just not as many large swimming about as there used to be! I will say Tony Chirrapo who fished back in the day as well as he is still out there today banging 50's at will!! Crazy Al for sure! Bill Nolan, Steve McKenna.......these guys all work hard and do their homework!

That's the guy. I'll never forget the day he got 4, 50#+ bass off Bonnet and Anawan. Fishes out of a 14' tin boat. |
No boat, back in the suds.

Growing up in Newport a couple of the best in the 60's and 70's(along with Steve Fougere) were Leroy Addison and Ed Straka.
They always had big fish in the local waters.
