you serious? 29"??? that's massive...pretty sure that would crush the current record that was just weighed in!

kind of wish we would all let fish that big go though plenty of super tasty avg sized fish swimming around in all species, but whatever to each his own i guess...kind of like shooting yourself in the foot though as Andy would say.

Yep it was huge. I was sort of surprised they kept it. They said they threw back another 8 smaller ones. I personally would have kept two smaller ones for the table and let the big guy go.

29" new state record that was JUST set. That fish was 25 & change inches 8+ lbs. A 29" is 10 lbs easy...

I wanna see pics of that mammoth

I didn't personally measure it, but the guy who caught it said it was 29" and when he held it up for show, I had no reason to doubt him. It certainly looked like it could be that long.
