Congrats on the big togue!
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did so. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Awesome fish! I caught a 29 incher that weighted 10 lbs 1 0z. (i cheated and went to Canada), it had thick shoulders like that one....so 12-13 pounds is a very reasonable estimate! Should be a nice mount.

Rusty,

Congratulations on an exceptional Togue, do not pass go, go straight to the taxidermist and/or carver/painter, 30" or over is a very high bar and difficult to repeat, take it from my own regrets of one I wished I had mounted from years ago.  I understand it is an added and unexpected financial investment but believe me, 20 years from now you will gaze upon that trophy with pride and the happiness of the memory! :) :)

Wow! That's awesome...congrats!  That's going to look nice on the wall. Hell of a cusk too! Cusk that size are pretty old. Caught one 27"  almost 6lbs at Ross lake. They grow slow.
C'mon honey...yes. I'll do it right after I go fishing!

Congratulations that's a lot of hamburgers and hotdogs to sell to get a mount but it's worth every penny.
