Nice fish graham, will buy the mag for posterity.
Least yah could have done is waited till I got the deck painted.
Going to remove the seat pedestals to improve the picture taking room.
Jeff, I've had a 200 + ...205 to be precise, caught by Stephen from this site in the firth of lorne. It was the last fish of the day and Graham and I could not lift it aboard but we tagged it and released it. We estimated it at 180+ as it was easily the largest fish of the trip and we had had a 179.
It was caught again about 4 weeks later and accurately measured which is how we know the weight. Not a bad fish when you consider the record is 221, but that is a figure that has been beaten several times but not claimed. Hopefully no one would ever dream of trying to claim a new record until the rules are changed to take into account catch and release.
Cheers
Dave.
