Wowowowowowwwwww

[@trollmaster5668]

you measure it after you stabbed it in the eye incredible

[@bc4life88]

Yeah so I knew it was legal size the measuring is more for people watching 😂😂😂 not that hard to judge a keeper and I usally don't keep smaller lings and there legal at 26 inch which is like 5.5-7lbs so not hard at all

Love the vid bro, love fishing out there but just a heads up it’s 26” from ear of head where the fillet starts is the legal measure, found out recently as well

@@bc4life88 what are the legal weight and size for fish to take in BC. Thanks!. As of today if they changed it.

[@bc4life88]

@@roadweather372 not sure about everywhere but in my area (Victoria BC) it's minimum size of 65cm or 25.6 inches we usually say 26 inches to be safe there is no size maximum.. I personally keep anything over 30 inches roughly 10lbs anything smaller is not worth it for me but to each there own
