Thanks for posting the photo, Joe.

Kevin has certainly gotten his hands on a really nice tosai... I'm surprised one this good was let go.

The Hi is even and soft. The kiwa is sharp. Sashi is just right, indicating future improvement and growth. The Sumi is too young to evaluate, but what I can see along the dorsal looks like high quality black... a good indicator for the future. The body is about all a person could hope for at this size. The shoulders are important... this fish has a nice, wide shoulder. Pattern is good. The total package looks real good.

I don't think this fish would be sold by Ooyama except to a dealer who has developed a special relationship.

There's going to be a bunch of raffle tix sold for this one.

I think everyone considering buying a raffle ticket on this koi should pass. Obviously this koi has no future and will only go down hill. I even doubt the winner will be able to put an inch of growth on it.
With all of that said what would be the earliest time I could take this koi home on sunday?

Here's another photo taken by Joe... a bit better light.
