I saw that on CNN's website. Apparently, the biggest one ever caught on record was only 3 inches or so longer than that one.

Didn't they say her belly was full of roe or something? Think about all the rockfish embryos now lost.

That is the ugliest fish I have seen in all of my life.

Do you think they ate it?
