Ron - here is a link that has a photo of the fish. Kind of sad to kill such a beautiful fish.

The side story I heard is he is mostly a surf fisherman. Someone said to him.... hey, why don't you come along with us today....

From what I hear it has been confirmed and will be the new state record.. which should stand for quite some time.

Here is another link with a different picture and a story on how this fish is on display...... :roll:

I'm with Brad. What a monster. When they get to a certain size, they should get a "get out of jail free" card. 8)

Anyone know how old a 70-pounder might be?

I am sorry but a record fish is coming home with me too if I ever find one.

Sounds like I need to add a red and white stretch 30 to my spread

I would keep that fish at my side it would be in the pass. seat of my car, at the dinner table and maybe at the foot of the bed! :lol:
