You have to live with your decisions, he with his. Every fish dies at some point, this one lived longer than most. By the sound of the article the angler is deserving of the accomplishment. I'm not going to sit here and judge him for claiming a state record on a once-in-a-lifetime fish. (You typically can't get the record if you release the fish)

Sorethumbs: "Great Fish. Congratulations on the record. That fish is HUGE.
Enjoy.
Thegildededgogher, wtf?"
I was just supporting the angler's right to keep his fish and claim the state record. I'm not sure what you're questioning here?

I truly meant that I don’t know what I would do. It would be an incredibly difficult decision. I’m not judging anyone’s decision, and I agree that he was probably more deserving than most.

Sorry if I overreacted. It just seems like there is always someone on these threads criticizing the angler for killing the fish. I jumped to the conclusion that you were being that person here. I just don't think it's "a shame," would rather just celebrate the angler in this scenario.

No problem. I took it as an opinion, not an attack.
