Take the ride for all you can, it won't last forever.
You'd never have to buy a rod or reel again.

 ...with some of the places I fish, I don't think I could carry it back to the truck, I'd have to drag it,,,and by the time it reached the truck it would already be a 1/2 mount that barely weighed 30#s.  |
 ... it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

I have often thought about this topic.
I would get the weight certified, lots of pictures and a good sports agent and lawyer. I am convinced that the next world record is a
$5M fish.
Endorsements for every piece of gear you used to catch the fish and I don't mean free stuff. I'm talking money. Rod, reel, line, waders, swivels, clip, down to what underware you were wearing. If it were a boat fish you are talking boat, motor, GPS, fishfinder, compass, rod holders, rocket launchers, fuel/water separators every friggin' thing on the boat. A good sports agent would know how to leverage this feat.
Then there would be the sport show tour. Articles written either by you or thru a ghost writter. The list goes on....

No boat, back in the suds.

Gotta agree about Al - it ain't ruining my life.
I think it worth less than a lot of us think it is. It ain't a LMB!

I totally agree with that statement. A 25 pound largemouth could be worth millions but a 80 striper....I doubt. Just doesnt have the same exposure..... |
Simplify.......
