Nice fish! It sounds like you found a new way to catch supper! If you keep doing it I'm sure sooner or later you will run into some even bigger. If you take your camera with you; then it would be easy to get a picture of them big'uns and put them back to make eatin' size versions. You can also get a lot of good pics on the water of other stuff (Like a jug kicking up a wake/deer otters etc) Not makin a fuss over one fish but a suggestion to save the majority. Good report though. Keep'em coming.
