FH was in Newsday!

No Autographs Please.

this is my favorite part:

---

Culleton's whopper, after all, was only a hearty meal shy of weighing 20 pounds.

---

he totally doesnt talk like that LOL what a dork - he swears the guy changed his words!

ETA: his name is Anthony and he is the article 'expert' LOL he didn't catch them.

ahhh anthony the celebrity!

thanks girls - i will take out his quotes bc i just realized its a REALLY boring article - LOL it was exciting for me bc i was there when those fish were weighed in!

Nearly as impressive was the brace of tiderunners presented at Cross Bay Bait and Tackle in Howard Beach, by Brian Crowley. Caught near Rockaway Reef and the Radar Pier, respectively, they checked in at 17.5 and 17.86 pounds. That prompted Anthony Iannone, who weighed all three fish, to say, 'Twelve-pound weaks aren't even turning heads.'

---

---

'I don't think the run is finished on Jamaica Bay yet,' Iannone said. 'On Sunday, I weighed in another 16-pounder.'

---

---

'Try for the tiderunners wherever you want,' Iannone said, 'but figure you have two weeks to catch one or you'll probably have to wait until the fall. You can bet also that a new world record is out there waiting. Culleton's whopper, after all, was only a hearty meal shy of weighing 20 pounds.'
