Some late pics from the St Lawrence Specialist tournament, thanks to Dale (CA).

I was convinced I had caught my very first fully scaled mirror... but I had not seen the pic of the other side of the fish... Oh so close...

I thought even the FS mirrors had bald bellies, so I would lean towards fullly-scaled on this one. Whenever Scott finishes massaging himself to pics of his pb, he can decide.

75% of all statisics are made up on the spot.

PB: 37-6. Still bigger than Jerome's.

All right... Who else thinks it's a fully scaled as opposed to a "scaly" mirror? I need to know! rolleyes.gif
