Definitely looks 38"-40" also nice amount of spots. Would be a contender in a spot tourny.

Way to go!!! We have been dealing with the red tide from Ft Meyers up to Venice. Other than offshore trips, I have stayed in the Peace River where there are plenty of reds and trout, but none like that one!!! Congrats!!
