Unusual 21-Inch Bass Caught By Father and Son Duo
Mark Swope and his father Irv hauled in a 21 inch bass weighing 1 pound 14 ounces.

Rumors of a larger catch near Brunswick and a five pound bass near Sandy Hook circulated, but no names were confirmed. The article also covers Maryland duck season dates and bag limits, noting the lowest limits in memory due to drought and wildlife concerns.
