Isn't that posession?
I'm with you, I believe that is what the State calls posesson. I bet if you asked 10 differant FWC officers you would get 7 differant answers

There is an exception for culling during a tournament, if there is a waiver filed and granted for that tournament. The problem as I see it is there is no way to get past the slot limit rule. Any fish over 27" cannot be "possessed" , therefore, unless the law changes the Florida record cannot be broken.

28.75 girth
Just shy of 43 lbs!!! This is an untouched iphone photo. Doesnt do the fish justice but you can see she's chunky..."
