Tell Cookie we had several witnesses that saw Ira catch it, one guy was even yelling it was a carp because it was fighting so hard. After pinching the tail, like the fishing guide tells you to do when measuring fish, it was 14 and 1/2", the state record is 15 and 1/4 inch, so it was just 3/4" off, from tying the record. The good thing is it is still swimming[
