Haven't measured it yet but we also pulled a 20 pounder on the other side of the set Edit: 45" to base of tail and just shy of 67" overall Last edited by BillNye; 02/20/22 12:55 AM.

Nice otter, I have a certain respect/disdain for the species, but their fur is really soft! Act like a blank, get treated like a blank. Insert your own blank!
