I often thought bout releasing a 50 if i was able to land it in a manner that would not cause it much harm.I too like many others have spent many hrs an dollars,miles on trucks an probably shortened my life by ten yrs with sleepless nights of coffe an cigarettes.hunting the fish of the Holy Grail.Its just a fish....I heard from a guy that witnessed it, that bob Hahn released one well over 50.an that got me thinkin there's gotta be some kinda extraordinarily good karma in this. I don't know I guess I figure it out when the time comes.Just the sight of ur passion swimming away knowing U where the victor has many merits the indians believed in crap like that.Now look where they're at...I mean whats the point.Do u do it for urself what satisfaction is there in lookinig at a mount thats gonna cost 1k-2k. thats a little more than spending money for me.After a while it'll get old. I know a few that don't even own theirs anymore.Do it for ur peers.What so u can be some kinda legend.I like to think I am a bigger person than that.Striper fishing is very competitve in these parts they probably won't have much nice to say anyways. then u'll have the detractors. Just seems like letting it go is a excellent option to me.Like I said I'll see if the time comes.I am By no means any kinda animal activist type.when it comes to keepin em I eat alot of the stupid ones...The Majestic Warrior is the one i'm talkin about. I just think it deserves a better ending. Something to think about.Just my opinion Now if someone wants to blow there stack go ahead makes no nevemind to me.
