I’ve been fishing many times at Raccoon Lake and caught a few striped bass, but never have I seen anything close in size to the striped bass that Jonathan VanHook caught on May 25th. VanHook “Hooked” a 39.08-pound striped bass from Raccoon Lake. The fish measured 42.25 inches long with a girth of 30 inches. VanHook was using bluegill as bait. Way to go Jonathon….It’s a new STATE RECORD!!!!
