Well, it woulda been until an investigation determined that it was foul hooked. Still a really big fish though.

Oh yeah, quite the talk around town. Plenty of speculation to go along with something like this. Overall its a bad deal for everyone involved and that it had to go this far.
It does show how the nd water systems are putting out big fish. I was in a tournament on the MO shortly after this fish was taken. Our team landed a 32 1/4", same size as the one posted in the story here, but she was spawned out.
