A North Carolina angler by the name of Todd Spangler just broke a 61-year-olf state fishing record for Speckled Seatrout. This is one of the most popular inshore saltwater gamefish in the Southeastern United States with anglers chasing this species from the Gulf Coast of Texas, around all parts of Florida, and up the East Coast.

The previous North Carolina state fishing record for Speckled Seatrout was as 12-pound, 4-ounce fish caught in Wrightsville Beach near Wilmington all the way back in 1961. It is incredibly rare for fishing records to last that long when it is the record of a popular gamefish sought after by recreational anglers.
 

Todd Spangler was fishing the mouth of the Neuse River in Pamlico County, a wide-river basin that dumps into the Atlantic Ocean. The Neuse River is a 275-mile-long river, the longest river contained in North Carolina, that flows from near Durham all the way to the Pamlico Sound.

The Pamlico Sound is a hugely popular fishing destination for North Carolina anglers targeting Redfish, Flounder, Striped Bass, and Speckled Seatrout. Striped Bass grow considerably larger than Speckled Seatrout ever do. The North Carolina state record for Striped Bass is a 60 lb. 0 oz. fish caught in the Hatteras Island Surf back in 1972.
