Adam, I'm awaiting your post on getting some cooler water 7's!!!

Eric, I honestly don't think I could of safely taken it out of the water, I without a doubt think it was right at the 300# mark, we barely could move it...and to think I was expecting a 50" inch bat :o

Eric, i got my 102" out of the water solo, but it tired me out so much that a surfer came over to help me get her back in. I guessed my fish was 220. I'm thinking Rays is 290/300! Just a guess of course, but probably not too far off.

Just FYI I believe the current record is 322lbs. It'd be cool if we got a IFGA certed scale, and one of us nailed a record, Tom excluded because he already has a whopper mac record  ::).

Don't forget my all tackle igfa record sargo! (Oh wait, someone just beat that record, but i held it for 6 years!) lol

I have a sling scale to weigh them up to 440 pounds, but the scale would never be able to be certified. I might have to start taking it out anyway to see what weights we're talking about.
