We’re excited to announce that another state record fish has been established here in New York. On June 15th Thomas Russell Jr. of Albion reeled in an 8 lb. 6 oz. smallmouth bass from Cayuga Lake (Seneca County) while fishing in a Finger Lakes Open Bass Tournament.
The smallmouth was caught on a drop shot rig using a soft plastic minnow. After being weighed on a certified scale and getting witness verification, the record breaking fish was safely released.

    Congrats to Thomas. Beautiful specimen for sure! If I caught a smallie that big I’d retire from smallie fishing… for about 3 minutes and get back at it. ?

    Honestly, it takes me a good 10 min. before I can reliably cast again. And that's for just a 4#r.
