Default World Record Bighead!!!!

Well I am going to get my bighead mount finally, I will post pics up later today or tomorrow. I got the call from Guiness Book that it is the New World record, they disproved the texas fish, cause no pics and no certified weight as well as the one in the middle east, my fish is bigger by all measurements, so I guess it is the New World Record..I dont think it will last long. Although I did talk to the guys at the Pearl, ILL processing plant Friday and they said the biggest that was ever brought in was 69#..

I will get the pics up fast, I am off here on Friday, cutting back, internet has to go, along with other things that we get acustom to but dont really need, for me anyway..So good luck to everyone on here, hope you all stick a Monster this Year!!!!!!!!

How come you're only now getting the fish? I had the replica in my hands months ago. I even have a picture with the artist.

Wow, the taxidermist did an excellent job! Not just with the casting but with the paint too. Beautiful. (for an otherwise ugly fish)

That's a heck of a man cave you have there. When you going to start guiding us?
