The 200 year old rockfish caught off Sitka, Alaska...


Henry Liebman with his record rockfish...

But there turns out there is more...

Turns out that the fish is really 64 years old.

So it is about as old as Ann Althouse!  No wonder she identified with it.

 Hostesses Alexi, Annessa, Lindsey and Delanie holding the record rockfish

And as Paul Harvey used to say: "And now you know the rest of the story."

  1. That's still one whopper of a fish! I like the way everyone holding it appears to be genuinely smiling, including the wholesome hostesses.

  2. Didn't it start to smell, or is that not a problem in the Great White North?

  3. Holy Sheetz! Seriously?

    Well, anything's possible. Even though it totally looks like a carp.

    Check out the size of that bone under its gill!

  4. Make that a carp with giant googly eyes atop its head a la the irradiated fish on The Simpsons.

    1. The googly eyes are from being cranked up from 850 feet! That will give you a headache.
