Absolutely incredible fish Bruce!......my question is, where's your bigbluegill.com hat?

Interesting observation, John.

Yes, you're right. This photo was taken a couple of hours after the fish was captured. It spent some time in a holding tank with pure oxygen. Pretty calm fish. I'm amazed that you were able to figure that out.

Hey One question!When I snap a picture immediately, the fins are usually up and broad...I noticed her fins are down is this because you calmed her down or took the photo later or something.I'm curious about that!
