    My customers fish was actually 19.5" long, so 21" is probably a just little bit long.

    If you measure the front, inside curve its 19''. I have it available to cast up if you need it. If not, keep it in mind for future reference .

    19" show and 21" back means it's a 20" fish Ken. I'm sure this blank would be fine if you're worried about a customer complaining about it being a 1/2" long. You never can go wrong going a bit big anyway. If anything, they'll probably STILL complain that their fish was bigger - lol!
