Just read the point about the weighing of Clarrisa and it does seem to be something that is raised from time to time.
Now I am not sure about the actual weighing procedure itself but one thing I heard that did surprise me was that I believe that **** Walker never actually claimed 44 pounds for that fish!!!! I think he only ever referred to it as a "forty ponder"
Reason for this was that the fish took on alot of water during its transport from Redmire....it basically became a very sick fish. The weight of 44 pound was after it took on the water?.I think **** knew this and supposedly referred to it as looking like a "boiled Owl" (a bit surreal but there you have it!)
Not sure if anyone has a better or more accurate insight into it.
