If you would have girthed the head you might have got 23".

Great fish.

Nice fish. That's one heck of a beast. It was only 46? Looks a heck of a lot bigger!

Excellent Fish!!! Hell of a job man!

And not that doesn't look "Bigger than 22" it is just 99% of people can't and don't measure girth measurements properly so people think that is 22 is normal...which it is NOT. 20 is normal, 22 is fat, 24 is #*^@ near hard to reach and anything over 25 is just dumb....but again, I am talking about LEGIT measurements.

Again, EXCELLENT JOB MAN!!! ABSOLUTE GORGEOUS FISH!!!

Sweet fish! I agree Hulbert..talked to a guy this weekend who said his buddy got a 53 x 22 that in his exact words "must have been on it's death bed" since it was "only" 22...what a joke...22 is fat people. get a clue.

As Jonnysled said, what a gorgeous fish! Judging by the size of the head, it's hard to believe that thing isn't longer than 46"--definitely a northern pike head. Sheesh, it appears as though the body is just a life-support system for the head!

Attaboy...

Wow, thanks for the compliments guys. Yep she sure does look bigger then 46,(you sould have heard us when she broke water first..." It's a tiger!!! and she's 50!!!!") but if anything she may be only an inch more...you can tell by the stubby tail. If you cover the tail portion from about mid may down the fish she definatly looks 50...then do the same and cover the head...46-47. I'm also pushing the fish out a bit. But as I say when anyone sees my pics "I make em look big. Isn't that what I'm suppost to do?" Then i tell the truth about the size...

Oh yeah....and she was easiely the best fight of my life. FULLY out of the water three times, one full flip, and the longest dolphin I ever seen....up down, up down, over here, no over there....simply awesome!

LOTW natural hybrid, twitchin a granny.

Thanks again guys,
Darcy
