The halibut length / weight chart says a 43" halibut should weigh around 37 lbs. Throw that scale out. Nice fish!

Thanks Grey that makes me feel better. I tried to check my digital scale
at home and it wouldn't register weight anymore. Opened up the battery
area and it was all corroded.

Duh.

I thought it was strange that I got like 25+ lbs of fillets off a 20 lb fish,
that's fillet magic!

I'll call it "30-something".

Definitely a beauty. What a thrill that must have been.

"nice fish! I also like the link to your fishing photo's"

The Santee Lakes bluegill population got a respite from the weekly prodding and poking of my little girls' fingers!
