Admin -> 24 pound 3oz fluke caught in NJ (8/19/2007 4:37:04 PM)

Looks like Monica Oswald of Neptune just caught the world record size fluke weighing in at 24lbs 3oz on 8/17/07 in Monmouth County NY, over the Shrewsbury Rocks in about 55 feet of water. The monster fluke was measuered at 38 inches long. The fluke was caught on a Spro bucktail tipped with squid. The previous record held by a long islander from montauk (Capt. Charlie Nappi) of 22lb's 7oz's on Sept. 15, 1975.
Weighed in at Scott's Bait and Tackle in Bradley Beach, NJ.
Supposidly she was using 65# braid and the IGFA is limited to 30# test... (this hasn't been confirmed yet..)
She also landed an 18+ lb weakfish last year (see pics below), leads the flounder "Dreamboat" contest with a 4.6 pound Flounder, has the 4th largest blackfish (13+ lb) in that same content AND if that wasn't enough she supposedly came close to the state record for Northern Stargazer (7.5lbs) as well...
