Kasey I dunno how ya did it.. but my 44" looks like a 60"... without sticking my arms out.. For reference I'm 6'2 280lbs

first of all, CONGRATS on an inches pb, i think??
i can't say that i've ever heard of THAT one, however.
just shows to go ya,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,length doan mean sheet w/o GIRTH!!
i think that for that reason i will continue to shoot for weight and NOT length. to your larger point~~
there is a HUGE difference between 26# and 36#,
NEVERMIND 40#'s,,,,,,,,,,,,,,that fish looks right on, for 26#.
and i would not question QL's scales as some have, here.
they are pricey, no doubt, but weight schisters; i think NOT!
notice the skinny tail section, how the torso actually tapers IN from the head, and the tail is not very broad, either.
please understand that i'm not picking on yer "pb", just trying to help it to make sense.
AGREED, relative to its length; that is one skinny mofo!
keep fishing,,,,,,,,,,,,,,if that one's there, then its bigger sistah may be close by~~~
