Dsouth has caught em in CT I'm sure. I know he lost one at the boat that may have been a 10...


My best CT LM was 8lbs even and was caught slow rolling 1oz spinner bait fishing for Northern Pike on a Nov afternoon many years ago, best swim-bait CT LM was 7lbs13oz. My top 4 Ma LM are 9lbs2oz, 9lbs1oz, 8lbs14oz and 8lbs6oz. The 9.1 was in 2007 and the other 3 back in the 90s.
Any year with a few over 7lbs I consider a great year so Jims 8.5 is a very special LM. Congrats Again Jim. bow2
