    How in the HELL did you get that in the yak? I'd be more impressed to hear the weight than the length...that first picture is hysterical--looks like a giant carp. (is that a dead striper in the background?)

    nice job!

      It was relatively calm by the time I got it to the yak, so I was able to get the grips on it and also grabbed the gillplate with my hand and slid it right on in... I didn't keep it and didn't weigh it. Based on asking around people that have caught them that size 50-60lbs? The fish in the background is a Perch on my line as I was also live lining.

        49.47lbs according to this. No way to tell with any certainty though, since the only measurement was length...which you probably got short by a couple inches (minimum).
