No problem! I did it with all the other photos too. :)

This is quite an impressive fish! We do ask that you crop the image so the fish is the main focus of the image. Ideally human faces won't be in the image. Unfortunately it looks like there are several spottings that need cropping and I apologize that it was not addressed earlier. Thank you for your understanding.

Haha yeah they are pretty big. We've got a few that we track that are over 100 pounds and over 6 feet long. I can't really hold one of those up for a picture LOL.
