If someone posted a picture of a 50lb. fish that the majority of the people found hard to believe based on several pictures along with some odd story-details, that person would get similar results in this silly virtual world of ours....this being a possilbe WR, it's just that much higher on the totem pole in and outside the inter-fishnet, in either case...no websitez is going to make someone cut a fish open for our own credibility approval. Like others have said, time will decide how this pans out. Hopefully, the powers that be, if and when it receives a WR title recognition, will clear up any possibility of discrepency.....otherwise....it will always have...

In seeing some of the pics, they do raise my eye-brows too,,, but I'm no visual expert to actually call it BS. It's a Super-Cow for sure, but the actual Holy Grail? Time will tell. My jury is still out for now.

Nice fish either way Mr. Meyerson.

...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

Come on is spelled come on not common


Jenn, good one



a 25 lb bass has a mouth 5" across so I don't know what is up with that picture.


I guess if you are going to submit a fish for a record, you better be prepared for all kinds of possibilities to remove all doubt. I know I would have gone to several weigh stations and after driving around with it mounted to my front grille , I'd allow it to be cut open if questioned. And I would not allow anyone but my professional photographer brother to shoot pics of me and the fish, any pics would then be copyrighted.
