Photoshopped or clever camera angle.
A 280 pound fish is going to be about the size of a 280 pound man, although it is claimed to be eight feet long.
But, I hear tell of Cats the size of volkswagons at Tenkiller and scuba divers have seen monsters that size near the damn at Keystone. Though one wonders what you can see in all the muddy water and also not get sucked into the works of the damn of itself....
Had a friend noodle a 60 pounder and he thought he was gonna die but, for having a rope around his waist and we pulled him and the fish to shore.
I’ll say one thing, he was a tough, good ol boy and his arm looked horrible.
Couldn’t have been happier though and bragged how he didn’t let go.
I told him the fish didn’t let go but, his ego wasn’t having none of that...
This is why Oklahoma is the best state.
