Teen Catches Record 58-pound Striped Bass

Check out this clip of a 13-year-old angler taking a world record striper.
Here is the article:
NBC -- Juliana Merighi has been fishing since she was five-years-old.

Little did she know that by age 13 she would be breaking world records.

"I don't even think the fish was unhooked yet and I was saying to her, 'Wow, you just achieved what guys in their 70s and 80s have fished their whole lives for and never, never get to attain'," Juliana's father Tom Merighi said.

The bass Juliana caught is almost as big as she is.

The Vineland, New Jersey girl landed a 58-pound striped bass in the Delaware Bay off Cape May County a couple of weeks ago, and as a result she may have broken the junior female record of 47 pounds for a striped bass that was caught off the shore of North Wildwood, New Jersey in 2006.

"When it came up and I saw how big it was, I was like, amazed," Juliana said.

It could take months to officially confirm that this little angler has set a new world record, but the documentation from Juliana's catch already has been sent to the International Game Fish Association.

As for the fish's fate?

Juliana did not taste the fruits of her labor.
Nice catch!

World Record Typical Whitetail



Here is a great deer. Congratulations to the hunter.

I am not sure if it was an open range deer or a high-fenced deer. The record books needs to have different categories for the two types. Nonetheless, it's beeg.
Potential SCI World Record SCI Typical Whitetail Harvested

On Saturday, October 9th, a whitetail buck was harvested outside of Fredericksburg, TX that is likely to become the new world record SCI Typical whitetail. Taken on the Bang Whitetail Ranch, which is owned by Jerry and Carrie Bang, this unbelievable buck green scored 253 2/8th inches gross, and netted 250 1/8th inches.

The Bang Whitetail Ranch began managing ten years ago and is in their third year to offer commercial hunts. The ranch is managed and operated as a family operation, and is on an MLDP Level 3 permit system.

Amazingly this buck is estimated to be only 4 1/2 years old and carries 30" main beams with an inside spread of 22", and packs 49" of mass. His left side tine lengths were 15", 14", 12", 10", and 10", respectively.

Incredibly, this deer was harvested only one day after the same hunter also harvested a 210 7/8th inch buck the day before.

The Bang Whitetail Ranch is located in Willow City, Texas just a short distance from Fredericksburg, right smack dab in the heart of Texas. To learn more about this great buck, and possibly book a hunt, check out Bang Whitetail Ranch.

Tumor


This is pretty sick. The tumor resembles a turkey without legs or wings.

I say deep-fry it.

Doctors Remove World's Largest Tumour From Patient's Womb

DOCTORS in Argentina have removed what they think is the world's largest malignant tumour from the body of a 54-year-old woman.

Weighing a shocking 23kg, the tumour had been growing inside the woman's womb for a year-and-a-half and took four hours to remove, The Daily Mail reported.

Oscar Lopez, surgical coordinator at Gandulfo hospital in Lomas de Zamora, on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, said: "I've never seen anything like it in my 34 years of medical service.

"We removed a tumour whose weight is comparable to that of a four-year-old child.

"In layman's terms, it was as if this woman had been pregnant with quintuplets."

Tumours of the type removed from the woman usually weigh no more than 3kg.
