Perfectly calm June 2003 sunset at South Pass in Venice. Bone She Dog. 27 3/4 inches, thick belly, looked like she was going to lay soon, maybe even that night. Awesome trip, dozen fish 2.5 - 4 lbs that afternoon, this one was noticeably different on the first run.
Was fishing solo in 16 foot flat, not sure what she weighed, guessing a little over 8. Didn't even get a picture (pre camera phone), decided to release. Still one of my all time fishing memories. Hour ride back to marina in the fading light went by in what seemed like five minutes.
