A backyard quarry?! Yer makin' me jealous here!

This thing literally had the biggest ear tab I've ever seen, Leo.  I should have gotten a picture from the other side as well.  Much smaller tab.

Yes that's a fish that we raised in the backyard Quarry.  Notice Dads elbow in full bend.  :-)  He could have made the fish look MUCH bigger!  LOL.

Even without the Condello Technique that fish would be big enough to look scary!

That's gorgeous. I'm still seeing something odd just below the ear. Tissue damaged?
