A 7-year-old boy helped reel in a massive striped bass off the coast of Rhode Island.
With some help from his dad, Nick Arey pulled in the fish, which weighed just over 53 pounds, after a 45-minute struggle.
The fish is larger than the record of 50 pounds, but the catch isn’t official because there wasn’t a proper scale on the boat. But the Areys are still proud their work paid off.
