A friend caught a net pen fish about a year ago when we were fly fishing. I'd guess similar size - not a long arm pic, and he's 6'7". Not from Rufus.

I used to fish Rufus Woods quit a bit and have caught some real whoppers. 10 plus pounders all on flies.
The wife and I were out trolling flies around one summer day kinda waiting for the evening bite to kick in, when she hooked into a beast that we could not stop.
As she got into the backing on her reel I got the electric motor going and went after the fish.
After a couple big runs the fish got tired and was coming to the boat.
I stood up to net this beast and Sharon let her line go just bit lack and the barbless fly came out of it's mouth and it swam away slowly.
I can't type the words that my lovely wife had to say about that fish getting away.
