I don't think it was a 50, she was real lean. I guess it's possible though.

Congratulations!! That's a great fish. In fact, it's the biggest fish I have heard of except for the 61.5 caught on the Habs needle. And it was a rough night especially for a 62 year old guy like you.
You are to be commended on landing a fish like that in this weather. |

Typically a 50" fish is 50 LBs. At least that's what we have always figured. Usually, unless the fish is sick, a 51" fish will weigh a pound an inch. Even if it's a racer, and fish that big usually are not racers, the fish had to be damn close to 50 lbs. Just a huge fish fish for the 8 to 10 foot sea we fished in last night.
Last night, I was several places with my partner from Westerly to 'Gansett. We fished with and spoke to 15 hardcore surfmen and we only saw 1 15lb fish caught. By my partner.

Earlier this season, I got a 49" fish that was under 40#'s. Lean and mean I guess.

Don't get me wrong... great fish I'd be ecstatic, just may not be a fifty. I caught a 39" the other night that only weighed in at 17lbs |
