Good reading. I would  love to have seen either fish before the taxidermist got to em' though...........Beautiful specimens, and catches to be proud of for sure. Every angler's dream fish.

I will always wonder, however.

Great fish

I too enjoyed that article,Jeffrey. Thanks for sharing it with us. My dad use to say "you never know what you may catch when you put a baited hook in the water" It's that anticipation that makes me want to fish as much as I can.

This is an interesting little story about the man and his fish that have been second best for more than 65 years....
