New Lake Striper Record-Lanier

I know this is in GA but the story is to good not to pass on here...

New Lake Lanier striper record - 47.75 lbs caught by a bass fisherman using a Bill Dance special ultraligt spinning outfit with a pumkinseed plastic lizard...

And no, this is not a joke.

I'm sure you can do a search and see the pic and story...

To land a 47# fish on ultralight tackle is quite a feat. That fish is a monster - it looks bigger than that little dude on the right in the picture.
