The new International Angler, the bi-monthly publication of the International Game fish Association, features a photo of Newport angler Tom Pfleger, PIER founder, with his newly submitted white seabass record of 57 pounds on eight-pound line. The publication noted that tom already holds line class records of two, four and six-pounds for the species.

That's it, I'm breaking out the trout rod.

Artificial reef fish gave him nothing but time in open water. These guys know how to do it.

8lb line would work if you could figure out a way to send an electric shock down the line so the WSB would not really put up any fight!
