That's great you released it. It's a tough call when you get a really big fish. To get it verified, you almost have to kill the fish. You took a measurement, plus you have an awesome photo, so you did the right thing. The cool thing is- you or some other lucky angler has a chance of catching it again next year when it might be 18 inches!

Jeff, the crappie is still swimming to be caught another day. I would love to have a replica made of it someday.

Beautiful fish! Did you keep it? Please tell me you are having a mount made of it. Does that place keep any records for large fish caught? I was lucky to catch a giant one too recently that I wish I would have kept to get weighed and verified at my local lake. People say it may have been a lake record.

Look at the dorsal fin! It's like a sail. :-)
