I know there are fish that represent memorable moments... junior, mom or grandpa caught a "big one" that day, blah, blah , blah. Neat neat moments and all BUT...
What size fish do you consider wall worthy - as serious anglers? I have been close to many of these but it's hard to pull the trigger on a "big but not exceptionally big" fish.
LM Bass: 22"?
SM Bass: ?
Walleye: 30"?
Perch: 15"?
Crappie: 15"?
Bluegill: 13"?
Northern:?
It would be neat if we can get everyone to post - then take all the serious posts and calculate the average and thus arrive at an official NDA consensus so we can "make the call" on whether to kill the thing or set it free to frolic happily (or more likely roll over and sink to its death 5 minutes after release).
And no - the proper length is NOT up to me! Mounting fish is all about ego and gaining acceptance/admiration/praise/jealousy from fellow anglers. Ha ha. Actually I love fish mounts because they remind me of fishing in general and how super neat fish simply are as critters.
Thanks.
