Michael Pittman, Jr., of Wayside, West Virginia, recently topped West Virginia’s striper length record, catching a 40.88-inch, 21.38-pound fish from Bluestone Lake in Summers County.
Pittman caught the striped bass fishing a crankbait near the mouth of the Bluestone River. The previous West Virginia length-record striper was a 37 3/4-inch fish caught by Harold Mills in 2006. The current state record weight for striped bass is a 29.56-pound fish caught by Terry Watkins.
