I think part of the experience of catching a 50 is keeping it to show everyone. You deserve the pride of taking it to friends/family/tackle shop and showing them that all the hard work, thousands of hours of lost sleep have finally paid off. Its also exciting for those who didnt catch the fish to see it... from hardcore surfcasters to your nieghbors kids. Its something you have to see and experience in person, to get the full effect of such a rare event. It must be great to be able to share that story of landing the fish of a lifetime with others with the fish right there by your side.
