That fish makes these look like minnows:

No comment about the person holding them.




Some of the posts I read indicated the fish was caught by a surf
fisherman. I would have let the fish go - it's too damned big to be
tasty. Though maybe for a record fish, you actually have to show up at a
weigh station with the fish!
