Not much story telling going with the tourney coming up but he claims to have caught 13 blues from 15-69 lbs last night. His names is Eric Fincher from Mt. Plaesant NC. He is the current state record holder for blue cat at 89 lbs. Fish was released but he held it for a weight is the reason for the rope in the mouth. Glad to see NC anglers appreciate these big cats enough to release them for someone else to enjoy one day. Studies suggest these fish to be at least 15 years old.
