IS this all wrong?

[NickH]

Why, that shouldn't be too unusual? Severums can easily attain 8 - 9 inches in length.

I have never seen 9" severum. 7-8" I've seen plenty.

Are you for real? Give me a break...

 

[peifc]

Yes, for real. A person who has this severums for years...the fish only maxed out at 7".
