I asked my buddy for all the details, bait, method of catch, release...etc. I didn't think to ask about distance for the photo but, please note this is his sisters' father-in-law and he is holding the fins of each fish so that they dont twist during the picture taking. I will post the deets as soon as I get them. Also, the "old man" weighs about 150lbs.

Except for the fact that he's not actually touching the fish. That photo is an intentional deception, but mine aren't. He sort of has his hands out pretending to touch the fish....and I'm certainly not questioning the ethics of the person who took the photo, it's just in the Condello Technique, you are required to actually be holding the fish. smile

Those guys add belly fat much like I do. LOL

Regarding deception, I wouldn't jump to the conclusion he isn't touching the fins. If he was pretending, his hands would be out of scale and smaller.

Any way you look at it, those are monsters.
