I don't think it is official yet. The guy allegedly got it on a live eel, I heard it weighed 81.6lbs. What a fish if true!



"81.6 pound slob was taken in Connecticut waters this morning on a live eel. This fish was believed to have been taken on the Southwest reef by a fellow named Al Stromski. The fish was weighed in at Jack's Shoreline Bait and Tackle in Westbrook Ct "
