A 37-year-old record was broken when an angler reeled in a big fish from a New York lake, officials said. James Britenbaugh of Pennsylvania caught a largemouth bass July 11 in Cayuga Lake, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation said in a July 22 news release.

Britenbaugh was preparing for a bass tournament when he caught the 12-pound, 6-ounce fish, officials said. It beat the previous record from 1987 by 1 pound and 2 ounces, officials said
