Interesting to hear what he says. The white coloration isn't always the best determining factor as I've seen a few that were really big old whitechins and were females. Head looks a little flat and usually the big males have a white spot or two on their sides. Pics don't really show one that I can see though it may be faint. Coloration is also in between. Was just curious.

Regardless, a beauty of a fish and congrats again!!!
