The state record fish committee has approved Dublin angler Rod Kegley’s incredible spotted bass from Claytor Lake as a new state record for the species.
Kegley caught the 4-pound, 7-ounce fish last Saturday while casting an Alabama rig around a flat in the lake’s Peak Creek arm.
More details about the catch can be found in my Tuesday column from The Roanoke Times.

While growing up in rural Southern Oregon, Mark Taylor developed a passion for the outdoors while he and his younger brother tagged along with their father on fishing, hunting and camping adventures.
Graduating from Northwestern University in 1988, Taylor spent four years as an officer in the U.S. Navy based in Norfolk before moving into journalism.
After five years writing about the military for a Norfolk-based publishing company, he became the outdoors editor at The Roanoke Times in 1998. He lives in Roanoke with his wife and twin daughters.
