I thought you would have something to say about the guy that kept his new "record" fish. Ignorant people don't realize a picture, measurements and let it go can produce a beautiful mount and not kill the fish. A skin mount is not nearly as good as a fiberglass mount these days. Too bad somebody didn't help him make a better choice. Poor 50+ year old fish.
