I got criticized the other day for thinking I recognized a fish from June. This one is kind of hard to miss. A client caught this tiger last June, then another client got it again in October of last year. This October, I got her again, all within a short distance of each other. She just loves the interior of my Tuffy!

I think I can agree it is the same fish... Upon close inspection of some defining characteristics on the bars, I feel there is enough to show they are the same...

Nice fish!! Definitely has gotten nicer looking with more age...

The markings on the cheek certainly make it look like the same fish. I'd believe it.

The first 5 inches behind the gill are what really defines it.

Definately the same fish. The patterns are like fingerprints.
