this is the same fish but I use an editor to darken it sun shine made it imposable to read the end of tail. did nothing but darken



John, sorry I can’t see the line to tell if it crossed 29 so I’ll have to call it 28.5. Great early fish.

31 inch ?


Jeff I have a new camera that I'm still learning to run I know focus is way off and numbers are un readable. did not want to keep this hog out of the water long so only took one picture. didn't realize how bad it was until I uploaded it to my computer. If you fell that it is not a legal entry fell free to remove it I'll understand.

John, I can’t tell if it crosses 31 for sure but I am sure you beat 30.5 by counting down from the end. Sorry I can’t give you full credit but you get at least 30.5 points. Went back and looked again and I’m pretty sure you crossed 31 so 31 points on this one.

John that is a heck of a fish no matter if he can be scored or not. Congrats

[Ahi1953]

John, I didn't see my note on here, but I had scored it last week and gave you 31.5 points... So this is just readding a post I thought I'd already done, I know I had updated the score sheet with these points... And make sure I'm clear, there is one fish at 31.5" at this time even though you showed pictures of this same fish in two different posts, correct?
