Thanks guys. She was a happy fish when I set her free. It would have been nice to weigh her, but it was not worth killing such a magnificent beast for that. At 58" with a nice belly, I can only imagine what that scale would have read...... Hopefully she'll live long and see a few more spawning seasons before I see her again.
