this is a reproduction of the once record fish, my grandfather was given several of these in return for the right of the taxidermist to sell them, this is mine :)

Its a dream fish thanks for sharing. Probally not a chance of that 1979 outdoorlife article being reprinted somewhere?

Thanks Chuck. I gotta agree with Jeff. Every member of this site have wanted that jerk on the line to be this guy. Thanks for sharing this with us.

I'm just blown away. What a privilege to be able to see one of Coke's grandchildren with a direct reproduction of the fish. Chuck we are truly in your debt, and Christine's for making this possible. What a cool, COOL deal.
