After the fact i realised it would have been a state record. When you catch a big fish you dont even think about it. I caught the monster 100 yards east of the bridge where the big sunk boat is now. There was a couple staying there for the weekend in a RV and i had to use their bathroom scale (weighed me alone, and then me with the fish the accuracy who knows!) I have a scale that goes to 50lbs that wasnt enough! There is only one pic. of this fish and they have it. Realising the importance of that catch i do think about it now. In fact i almost got the state record on a spec as well. Santa Rosa sound has alot of big fish in there. I don't know what to do if you catch a possable state or world record. Who would you call?

If you look what he said, it was 52 inches and didn't know the weight.

You call the local IGFA, that's who! The # I do not know, try 411? I do know you have to measure the fish's length and girth, maybe even the head. Also have to submit the picture and the fishing line wrapped around a piece of small cut card board ( a little bigger than normal size index-card). On the card I think you need the date, lb. test line used, measurements of the fish. I seen this on Salt Water Angler with Rick Murphy I think. Also you can get the fish's weight next time by using a proven mathematical formula by entering the proper measurements of the fish. You might want to check into all of this for future reference.
