RE: Guess the age of Darin's world record fish
Oh, by the way, the fish was a gravid female, but the eggs were not quite ripe yet. One ovary was so big it over-amped our balance, so we had to go the hanging scale for it. I forgot to ask Joe what it weighed, because we had not weighed it yet when I had to bug out. The other ovary was either the strangest thing I have ever seen inside a fish, or it was full of some bondo-like substancethe taxidermist pumped in. I'll have to find out about that. Weird, grey, clay-like stuff.
The big fish was definately a topic of conversation at my lab - everyone had to come by and see it.
