Whats the point of a "Trophy" for the recs? What does someone do with 300+ pounds of fish?? 90% of people wouldn't know what to do with a fish that size other than to take pictures.

My understanding of the "trophy" is to allow for state records to be broken or to allow for tournament winning fish to be landed. Only a handful are acutally landed in any give year coastwide. Just like the world record bass thread there can be large finacial rewards associated with landing one of these fish, without actually selling it. Or like stated above, one hell of a sushi party.

Also groups like Second Harvest, will take meat donations for their programs.
