Really nice fish! I'm guessing (based on a dollar being 6.1 inches) that fish was 27.5" to 28". Am I close? (Greg 04/24/2021 20:12pm)

I wish I knew. I forgot to measure it be for I cleaned it. But I will measure it with out it’s head and guesstimate here in a bit. Thanks bro! (Ryan Hench 04/24/2021 21:05pm)
