The head on that thing is prehistoric looking...  :o
I am human. I am a predator. Don't ask me why I'm staring down a hole, waiting for a fish to bite. Its instinctive and I refuse to fight it.

Still have not heard where it was caught.  Is there some issue stating what lake it was?

OH MY GOD. 

(The next thing he'll tell us is that he didn't use any bait, and pulled it in on 4lb test.)

Congrats.  That's a fish of a lifetime!

There is a bit of an issue.  The person who caught the fish isn't necessarily a member of the board.  But a friend of his is, and he doesn't want to burn his friend's spot.  Sounds reasonable to me... if I caught a fish like that somewhere, I wouldn't want my friends posting the location on a message board for all to see.  Like Huntr pointed out, I'm sure it will come out eventually through word of mouth... it almost always does.
I see.  Makes sense.  I don't care where on the lake I was just curious which lake.  I'm sure it will come out come derby time.

Take a look at the picture of the fish and then take a look at the the Laker that was trap netted in Nubi this past fall.
I am not saying it is deff the same fish but they look almost identical.  ;)

winnisquam is my bet.....
when chuck norris played golf for money, chuck marked down a hole in zero every time, the golf pro said, "chuck: you can't score zero on a hole." Chuck norris turned towards the man and said, "I'm chuck norris, the man proceeded to pour gas over his body and set himself on fire because that would be less painful than getting roundhouse kicked by chuck norris....chuck norris roundhouse kicked him in the face anyways

Just looked and your right. Almost identical except for the 24lb vs the 49 lbs.
