It's all relative. Saltheart's analogy of decent fish caught in years gone by, do somehow increase with age as we relive that adventure of some good days, it's natural. A rat to someone might be a 20inch fish but to others a fish less than 15lbs could be one? Mike P's answer is the likely choice unless your trying to impress someone, on the other hand your fishing buds you share with you should be honest,a 28 is a 28 and not a 30. Then again a 28 alone at night by yourself released unharmed could be just, I had a nice fish last night on this or that and leave it at that. By Salthearts equations and mine that fish next year could be a 29 or 30 by next year but who cares but me and my memories? Prospector
