Two new saltwater fishing records were recently recognized in the state of Georgia, the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) announced on Facebook this week.

The record for the largest almaco Jack fish was set, while the largest blackfin tuna caught by a woman was tied, said the department's post.

Both fish were caught earlier this month.

"Jason H. Rich, of McRae-Helena, reeled in a massive 23-pound, 15.04-ounce Almaco Jack (Seriola rivoliana) on May 2 while fishing offshore between the South Ledge and Navy Tower R3," DNR officials wrote.
