      Brings two questions to mind.

      Can a catch and release fish be considered for a record?

      Will someone within the DNR have to dissect the fish looking for any "improprieties"?

      You can tell from my questions I have no experience submitting a fish or animal for consideration as a record. Many years ago, I did gig a pretty good sized frog.
I used to be cute and adorable. Then, I had my first birthday. Been downhill ever since.
