Better men than Al Mcreynolds have folded from the pressure of falsely claiming something to be his and wasn't.

And I wish Stezko's fish was the IGFA record holder, because he is a local boy.
That is some funny stuff Swimmer .

Very interesting....................the range of opinions on this "Record" seem to run the gambit.
I do recognize the McReynolds striper as the current IGFA top fish, however it does seem tainted and that is why the questionable status is so prevalent in a good portion of the respondent posts. As I stated earlier, had he swum her in unassisted ~to a man~ he would be hailed as the undisputed World Record Holder and be held in high esteem by us all.

I also believe that a Record of such high regard will be restored to its greatness within the next season or two, and hopefully she'll be landed within the shores of New England. Seems to be the Land of the Champeenships, lately..............why not the Land of the LAHHHHHGEST Large ??

Tight Lines, and
Happy Hunting to ALL!
