Hey Haulin...I can't really say your story is true or false, but you do have to understand where people are coming from. You posted a thread two weeks ago about how your son may have caught a record Largemouth. You posted this thread in a story like manner similar to something one might read in a reader's digest, which has grabbed people into wanting to see this hog. I don't think what's causing all of the flaming directed at you boils down to what the state says, but rather the pictures of this huge fish. You have to expect a little
from the TU members, especially from those who live in NY, when you're reasoning behind not posting pictures is that your son can't get them off of his digital camera. In the day and age we live in, there are too many options to solve the problem and when you're talking about a possible record size fish, I don't think it matters if the state recognizes it or not. Like has been stated, he can always go back and catch it again from this remote pond. I would just think most people would do anything possible to get the pictures downloaded and not put it on the back burner...I know I would be at a 24 hr walmart with card in hand and some cash. My point in all of this is to say that you shouldn't get so defensive and understand that you brought alot of this on yourself.
With that being said...if your story is true I can't wait to see the pictures...record or not, but if you never show pics and NY never talks about this then you can kiss any respect on this site goodbye. I hope that's not the case.
