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...

I'm questioning this whole thing...

Catching a 24lb fluke, a 4.6 pound flounder, an 18+ pound blackfish, and a 7.5lb northern stargazer all since April?

Just seems a bit like winning the lotto, again and again...
