Once in a while a fish comes along where your hand is not going to span the distance across the back and under the gills.

lucky for my i was blessed with some monster hands. i could palm a basketball in 5th grade. this spring i grabbed a 44.5 inch muskie bare handed. i dont think i will come across something bigger than that because i only fish freshwater.
