    Wonder if the fish was over 100 when first weighed and dropped to just under when they finally got it on a certified scale???

    i was told it was over 100. but that can be counted on as nothing more than heresay. i guess it really doesn’t matter. hell, that king weighs more than all the ones i’ve caught in the last five years.
