Well,let's see...just measured my hand & it's 5 1/2" in that position(from thumb to heel). My hand is not particularly big,
and I believe LK2 to be a tall fella, leading me to believe that his hand may be larger than mine. The pinky side of his
hand is just past the midway point of the trout's length. By accumulating, interpolating, mastur...oops! I mean extrapolating
all available data, I can assure you that this fish is between 11" & 12" in length; to be precise, 11 11/16". If LK2 says
otherwise, we have no choice but to question his ability to properly measure a fish.
On a side note, why are all these measurements in inches? I thought Canada switched to the metric system years ago?
