I think the fact that he pulled the thread and never came up with any measurements is telling. I saw the picture, and it was a big fish, but it didn't look nearly as big as Darin's 92.5 lb bighead. I also think it's lame to claim a new record and then complain when people are interested and ask for more pictures and a little bit of verification. This is why I recommend folks with new record fish to get them weighed on a certified scale with witnesses. That takes the controversy away.
