I heard similiar, they did length and girth measurements estimating at 70plus... To be honest, I dont believe it unless it is somebody I personally know or a fish like that hits a certified scale... I guess many of us cary a 100lb scale for bass right? Every year there are rumors, but the fish was released, Blah Blah. The fish down there are all spawners loaded with roe and herring. Most lay the tape on top of the fish and go over the Football adding inches to length, also uneven bottom, Looking over your shoulder in the dark, rushing, etc... Pictures dont always tell the truth.. I have a buddy of mine that is like 5'3", give him a 40 and he can tell everybody it is a 60+ and it would be believable if you see a pic, (me unfortunately Im 6'4'- opposite effect)! Look Somebody caught the record fish off Block 2 years ago, but it was released, Another was caught in Sandy Hook Channel in 2007, but that to was released? Common, do we honestly believe that?? Especially a fish that may be worth several hundred thousand dollars???
