The weight of that fish will be a mystery for eternity. My scale was at home and Don doesn't have one. Don and I spoke about getting an official weight, but Don's take was that this isn't a tournament. He didn't care about the weight and simply honored the fish for being the magnificent creature it was, a trophy to be proud of. I will just say that his fish made my trophy over fifty pounds look like a Speckled Trout. He kept telling me how small my fish looked compared to his, trying to make me feel bad for harvesting her. I didn't even want him pulling his kayak up next to mine on the beach  .

Uh Oh, here they come...

I don't remember saying I could swim without a wetsuit, no weights or fins in 59 degree water for three minutes on one breath. I said a 3 minute breathhold, which was timed in perfectly calm warm water, after properly prepping my lungs. It should be obvious that jumping in ice water will more than cut your oxygen level in half, then kicking down with no fins or weights and spending precious energy will give you twenty seconds at best. But, thanks so much for clearing that up, Chris.
