Congratulations to Rick Otty from Hudson who, on Monday January 28th, managed to catch the state record Black Crappie in Kinderhook Lake. The fish measured 18.5″ long, 16.5″ girth and weighed 3 lbs-13 oz. This broke the previous state record black crappie of 17.75″ and 3 lb-12 oz caught in Duck Lake, Cayuga Co., from way back in 1998.
