Record striper caught

[WeekendWarrior]

Just saw on the news a record striper of 9 lb. 1 oz. was caught on Halloween. Thought record would be bigger than that?

That is the "Alternative Methods" record.  

I'm pretty sure the pole and line record is over 20#

A hybrid striper, or wiper. They don't get nearly as big as a pure striper does. Plus it was on a jugline instead of rod and reel so it was the alternative record like wrench said.

Alternate methods, yes.  I have caught many larger from LOZ(up to around 15#) on pole and line.

Pole and line record is 20 lbs 8 oz. Caught in the Osage in 1986.

Iwas just talking to someone today about using shad when fishing for big Hybrids. I ise rhem in combination with a spoon   Really I believe it is the effective way to catch them because they tend to stay so deep.
