Nice fish!, we have to come up with a way to weight fish like that in the fishing area. Sucks to see a fish like that not to go back. Thats only my opinion , if you catch it you have the right to do what ever you want with your fish. Hopefully a lot of people got a piece

I've known Frankie Noto for a long time as well....
A great Fisherman, not one to brag at all.

We all love to fish.....

I've seen and heard of more 50 lb plus fish this year then ever before.

The other morning I was surrounded by acres of huge Drum just finning on the surface.....

I just love it...

What I do is weigh the fish in the net. I have a detachable handle so all I do is net the fish take the handle off and weigh the net and fish together. The net weighs less than a pound. I know some guys weigh the fish by the lip/jaw but this will cause internal injuries. The fish is then gently removed from the net and held horizontally for a quick picture, revived at boatside and released. I like to see those big girls go back but you never know if that fish was gut hooked and bleeding, I would have put it the box too. Absolute fish of a lifetime, congrats!

That's a fish of a lifetime. Most of us will probaly never even see a bass that size. Congrats to the angler that caught it.
