and then released. this couldve been worth $1 million in endorsement and appearance fees for the 3 men who caught it, yet out of an act of kindness they released it. i saw the video of this fish on pti and its HUGE. yet there is controversey whether it can actually be recognized as the record breaker even though its very well documented. heres the story and picture. long story but good read (i know fishermom will like it. perhaps she can explain "foul-hooking" )
