lol i thought of bringin that up. cause this reminds me of that.. we come up with some of the strangest fish stories. but unlike most they are true. thankfully there's a pic of this one. it's probably been chopped up by now.. (hopefully) but it would have been great to get a pic in the same position and see if it actually did shrink or if there is just a measuring discrepancy.

but i swear it was 44 1/2 last night. scouts honor. (i did used to be a scout) i never lie about the size of a fish. my estimations can be way off.. but any time i guesstimate i chop off 2-3inches instead of adding them. (mostly to keep my arse out of trouble if some one wanted some cook out fish, cause so far my three have all been just at or just over. and two dont count cause im counting them at 27. and stickin to it...)

Fish don't shrink in length Chris.....did you guys watch the "how-to" instructional video that came with your tape measure?? Maybe it was one of those "Rhody Tape Measures" we hear so darn much about?

lol.. i'm not doubting they dont.. i'm giving the shop the 3rd degree tonight on how they measured.


but then again, every one here swears stripers dont have teeth, and i can tell you with 100% certainty i felt them lay into me when i lipped that fish.
