I dont think they cuase a lot of mortality either.. But i know that we are to far of a run to catch some big guns during the one day tourneys!

65 inches is too small. that 150 pound fish you cut off was probably closer to 72 inches. I think minimum for tournaments should be 78 inches or 6 1/2 foot. that puts them close to 200lbs depending on how fat they are.

I hear you thing that makes me sick is listening to all the hooked up right before lines out. have some respect for yourself. Better yet all the fish boated right at end of day that they have had laying on their deck trying to fish to find better one.
