Lovely fish there! At least it wasn't caught in a drift net or any other illegal means. Pity about the bitter tone to some of the comments so far.

Always a consideration Derek, but I think this one was caught during the summer...

It's always hard to tell, but I suppose the Specimen fish committee are involvde so perhaps the fish was weighted on land with a certified scales :?: If so, then he is an International Front Row and should forever have a normal sized fella beside him for pictures, so his fish don't look too small.... :lol:
