chefchris401 Would this help,The fisherman on the left isBeth Versak, The photo was taken by Lisa Warner, Md DNR Fisheries service. This fish was caught in the upper Chesapeake Bay in 2001 using a gillnet. The striper was tagged and released with the number 411445. The total length was 47 inches and aged in the 87 yearclass or 14 years old then, so it is 17 years old today.
note: Using my maximum on the length to weight charts it is estimated weight for 47 inches was 47.5 pounds. Looks bigger to me. If any one catches this beast dont forget to send the tag in.
He's gotta be 60 or 70 lbs by now

The second striper is a 92 pounder hauled out of the Chesapeake and tagged in 2007.

GOOD LUCK GOOD FISHIN:uhuh:

Yeah would say that first fish is bigger than 47.5 lbs.

Both those fish are the kind i dream about landing in the surf.

That 2nd fish looks like it's dead. That must be some kinda strong kid to hold a 92lber like that.

Haha. That 2nd fish looks like someone's wall mount magically "worked" into the picture.

How come she's wearing 2 different gloves?

Nevertheless, I'd hug her and the fish.
