The new International Angler (http://internationalfishingnews.blogspot.com/), the bi-monthly publication of the International Game fish Association, features a photo of Newport angler Tom Pfleger, PIER founder, with his newly submitted white seabass record of 57 pounds on eight-pound line. The publication noted that tom already holds line class records of two, four and six-pounds for the species.
