Nice Fish JIT. Shore... boat?

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan

44 inches,the girth was close to 28inches,and I found 4-5 scup in her. I will say that the place where I was fishing the water was very cold for this time of year. That maybe the only good thing about this weather pattern the last 3 weeks.Water temps are still springish.

Well-fed fish for this time of year - usually you don't see them bellied out like that until later. Congrats.

If the length and girth are accurate, well over 40#. It works out to 43 and change using the formula LxGxG/800
