This has nothing to do with the nice bluegill in the first photo but I thought I would share this:
A while back on an ice fishing website we had a guy that was trying to pull one over on everyone. That is, he claimed to have a photo of an 18 inch yellow perch which was laying on a checkerboard table cloth, complete with a tape measure underneath it.
Only problem was one could clearly see what the length of each square of the tablecloth was, as the tape measure was laying right there. The squares were 3 inches if I remember right, but using the squares one would only come up with about a 14 inch fish! Obviously the guy had cut the tape measure, removed excess tape, and hid the cut under the fish. It didn't take long for people to cry fowl! The poster might have pulled it off it he hadn't use the checkerboard tablecloth!
