I could not get link to work to watch that particular video but I have seen similar (based on your description ) many many times with my own eyes. One time a guy catches on at the canal. He holds it up and asks me if its a keeper. I say no , its only 22-24 inches. He says he's going to take it to his truck ( a 15 minute walk) so he can measure it. Of course he never came back The fish was dead about 2 minutes into his walk to the truck anyway.
I have also seen some people fishing and just keeping every single thing they catch. Everything from short stripers to hand size fluke , etc. I'm sure we've all seen similar.
