Apparently the guy who caught the fish had a 68# last year and witnesses said that this fish was WAY bigger. They didn't have a scale to weigh it and he released it alive.

No boat, back in the suds.

It looks legit to me..

I am not an expert but I do know a bit about photo shopping, etc. I say the photo is likely legit. 100lbs? ...I don't think so but its a huge fish thats for sure. The World record LMB was tied by a guy in Japan I think. I agree, the world record LMB will bring far more cash than will a Striper.
