Did this Albany Man Shatter a New York Fishing Record?
A New York State Freshwater Fishing Record has been broken and a new one set for the biggest White Crappie ever caught in the state! This past Saturday (August 21st) Roy Isaac of Albany decided to spend the day fishing with his 14-year-old son. Who knew by sunset Roy would be in the record book?
Most won't divulge their secrets but we know that every fisherman has his special fishing spot certain to bring luck and big rewards. Syracuse.com reports that, for the last month, Mr. Isaac has been spending time casting his line into Sleepy Hollow Lake in Greene County. With each visit the fish were getting bigger and bigger. First visit he landed a 1 pound, 7-ouncer, next a 2-pound, 10-ouncer, then a 3 pound, 10-ounce fish. Why wouldn't you go back again?
