[MinnesnowtaWild]

Congrats Scott

[Scott K]

Thanks! I was fishing by myself, and just couldnt get a good picture, and I just gave up, as I didnt want to keep the fish out of the water to long. I do have about 10 pictures of its tail, the clouds, the side of my boat, and a couple of me with half the fish. Kinda sucks that with my largest, I didnt end up with a very good picture to keep.

[MinnesnowtaWild]

That is too bad but at least you got to fight the fish and it's in your memory forever.

[Papa Grump]

Sweet !!!

[HotPocket]

Nice one Scott, Cool color

these flats just keep getting bigger. did anyone catch one at 50 inches last year? I check this forum regularily (even though i've never wet a line for a flat in my life) and don't recall any 50 inchers caught last year although i remember quite a few high 40's. Awesome that they're growing and awesome fish.

I had the same problem with my largest musky. I was by myself and couldn't get a great picture. Took one put her in the water then took another and put her back and she swam strong. I figured it was worth a shot. Oh well though like Minnesnowta said, the memory is really what counts and having any picture at all just makes it that much sweeter.

Here is my sisters first ever flathead and by far the largest fish she has ever caught before this it was like a 21in northern. She reads in this forum all the time and is always saying she cant believe the size of the cats you guys catch. I know its hard to tell or even guess without measurement but to me the fish seems bigger then the scale said so help me out with some guessing. I got another pic if you thnk you need a better one

[Joshuaace]

Did the scale say somewhere around 30# ? Congrats to your sis, that's a nice fish.

[MinnesnowtaWild]

30# seems about right.

[MinnesnowtaWild]

Oh, and nice fish!

[LOTWSvirgin]

Yah it came out at 32. I have yet to catch one over 30 myself. In fact that is the first one over 30 I have seen but have seen 28-29 It just seemed so much larger 3-4 pounds differance. Oh well still a big fish and was fun. It was also the first time she ever held a fish but that was the limit couldnt get her to kiss it

[DTro]

I was thinking mid to high 30's on that fish.

Nice one!!

[bchevycaprice]

how tall is she?
