New York Outdoor News Long Island Fishing Reports contributor Mike Dean not only took top honors in the striped bass category at the recent Manhattan Cup, held June 7, he also caught (and released) the biggest striper in the event’s 23-year history.
Dean’s estimated 60.16-pound mammoth striped bass is a personal best for the finance trader from Quogue, in Suffolk County, N.Y., who also authors the Manhattan to Montauk angling blog.
“I’m a humble guy,” Dean said, “but for a day I felt like the best angler in New York.”
