Moe,  Those fish are huge!!!  ;D  I didn't get the complete download the first time due to the artifact computer I have.  Do you eat them?  Bet they're tasty coming from the cold water?  Got a good recipe for battered fish that would do them justice... 
GeRm you have to give one of those wiskered fish a kiss!  They probably won't fart on ya like those elusive lings do, (wait I think I have you and FishermenJake confussed.)

hey barleydog....its been afew years since i last ate one...well not that long...long before they put a 24" max slot size for keepers, i used to smoke them....the only good eating ones are actually in the 3-5lb range....and even though the fishery is in great shape, i dont think i would keep one now.....but they sure are tasty with a cold blue.... ;D ;D  grump
