I thought this would fit well in the Random section. We have a lot of strippers that over winter but this is the nicest one I have ever seen.
25lbs and 41” through the ice. Crazy

I like my strippers about 120 lbs and about 65 inches....
That’s a thing of the past around here. I’ve heard stories of that size fish in the 60’s & 70’s but now the average for the big girls is 60lbs or so.
I have never seen one that big in person.
My PB is 47lbs and that was 25 years ago.

If you're feeling down, one way to lift your mood is to imagine all the nice things Steve Irwin would say about you if you were a lizard and he found you sunning yourself on a log
Steve Irwin loved all animals including lizards but stingrays will always have a special place in his heart
