'Heard they had trouble actually figuring out how heavy the fish was, the scale wasn't big enough and what not.

Not everyone agrees with the keeping of this giant.. I guess they feel that this one fish will make a huge difference to the gene pool.

That's the same place where they were crying over two small Halibut killed in English Bay last year-I also heard they were big on fly fishing for Herring. [)]
