The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

looks way too small to weigh that much...
But in fairness, maybe he caught it on the new Point Jude "12inch Kow-Hunt-R Kast-Iron Skillet" (240 ounce) and the big girl swallowed it.
Or has anyone done the math?
Maybe in 2008 pounds weighed more than they do today & when you account for inflation, it MIGHT just work out in todays pounds...

I don't believe it

25-30 even tho the picture is not that great. It has a good gerth. It may be a 40-46 inch fish.

Judging by the hand/arm length and girth I would say 25 pounds-ish. Unless those guys are freakishly tall, then I would say 26 pounds.

The head looks much larger than it is due to the cut up gills

For comparison, this fish barely broke the 30lb mark at 46"
I'm 6'3" and not holding the fish out...
