Thanks for the good thoughts everyone. The fish was large enough to filet and the neighbor has it in his freezer. Neighbor's son is a Marine in Afghanistan currently and they spent many days in the ER during his formative years. He said that Sav. (my daughter) asked him if when they finished with xrays would it be too late to go back to the farm. I am a proud papa.
This was a couple weeks ago, it was her first fish to ever catch. You can see by the size why she was so excited to catch a keeper.
