Does anyone know if there has ever been a larger striped bass caught since this date. Netted or not?

92 Pound Striped Bass

Since 1982 there apparently has been only one striped bass caught and verified that exceeded Albert McReynolds 78.5 pound world record. This fish weighed 92 pounds, and is shown at the right. This fish now hangs on the wall of the Maryland Department of Natural Resources in Annapolis Maryland.
This 92 pound striper did not become the new IGFA record because it was caught in a net by the Maryland DNR during a research project in 1995.
