wow, this is a tough one, on the one hand one 50 is enough, but having two would be pretty damn cool too. I guess I would just take a bunch of pics of the second one and let it go.

Keep both. Get both officially weighed, sell if legal to do so, or mount one if the fish is so big I may never get one bigger. My feeling is a 50 is a really old fish and close to the end of its life.Keeping one won't affect the population one bit. On the other hand, releasing one that big is cool too, just sharing what I would probably do if given the chance. You know me, trust but verify when someone claims to catch a so called "50".

Now to John's point if it's a 60 then that's a different story. i know a guy on The Block who caught a 64 about 20 years ago and.....QUIT!

So if I caught a 60 I might hang it up and hit golf balls.
