Default Got a HOG this morning!!!

I was like a kid in a candy store when I got this girl in! Wanted to mount her but she was ready to pop so sadly had to release but what a great memory this will be! Weight in at 9.6 pounds

Good fish man! Should have taken measurments and a lot of pics and had a replica made. Best of both worlds that way, fish lives and you get the mount.

Man, that's a pig! Kudos for letting her stay alive! IMO, replicas look a lot better anyway.

Nice fish,but one can still have a mount take a pic and measure they build nice ones out of plastic,and the fish isnt hurt as released.Length ,girth pic and weight.
I have a 9 plus on my wall,that my uncle had mounted they lose their beauty over time when real
