You only get a bit over 40% of the weight back from the processers in filets.. so thats about 120 lbs of filet...
and yes.. I have a coffin type freezer in the garage.
On that trip we were releasing anything under 150 lbs (this is still a big fish!).. I kept only 8 fish for the whole trip.. the unprocessed weight of those 8 fish was just under 1100 lbs!
