There is a new record for the largest Summer Flounder caught in Connecticut, according to Connecticut Fish and Wildlife.

They congratulated Bill Proulx who caught a Summer Flounder that weighed 15.3 pounds. It was 32 and 5/8 inches long with a girth of 26 1/4 inches. 

This breaks the former record for a 14-pound, 13.76-ounce Summer Flounder caught in 2019.
