Hardly the attitude that I would have after that stellar catch. Sounds a bit like remorse over finally getting one over 20lbs. Personally, I would be re-living the experience in my mind, while planning my next trip to go pursue catching one of its siblings !
But then, my friends often refer to me as "the eternal optimist" in most every endeavor that I pursue.....and not just fishing. (Have been told...." kinda doubt that you can pull that off, using wood as your medium,, but it'll be amazing if you can".....and later I show them pics of the completed project, and bathe in their awe. Live for challenges, I guess.

My retort is always that Judy Tenuta(sp?) (comedian of a couple of decades+ ago) comeback........"Hey...it could happen".
Great catch...go top it !

What a nice catch. It would be a beautiful wall mount. Can the meat be saved if the fish was frozen before going to the taxidermist?

I caught a 35# king salmon out of Ilwaco when we were poor newly weds 50 years ago. The fish went to the cannery and we enjoyed canned salmon during the winter. I would love to have that fish mounted and hanging in our office. But when your poor, eating is more important than vanity.
