One thing to remember about most World Record listings for fish is that they only list fish legally caught on rod and reel. If you look at commercial fishing records or other sources you will see that some speceis have been recorded much bigger than the all tackle world records. Like striped bass for instance, Maryland DNR has a mount of a 90+ pound that they shocked up or caught in a net. The largest striped bass ever recorded was a 125# beast.
