[#0000FF]Although I do claim some originality in that phrase, I have not copyrighted it. Since it has universal application...to all anglers...I have unselfishly granted the right for any and all fisherfolk to use it whenever needed.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]The only downside is that the species and size of the PCR fish is unproveable, so it will not count in any contests. However, when telling the tale amongst fellow floggers it is generally acceptable that the lost fish can be whatever you claim it to be...since it was not seen and cannot be disproven by any skeptics. Just try to keep it within reason. For example the wimpy fish you "farmed" off enroute to your boat at Willard cannot be claimed as a potential world record blue marlin. Gotta set some standards and make some limitations somewhere. Otherwise, us typically honest fishermen might be tempted to exaggerate a little. Heaven forbid.
