Interesting. My research on this species a few years back didn't indicate they reach sizes in excess of 6.5 ft. Of course the ones seen along the inshore reefs may indeed be smaller than those found in open water. I've only seen them close to shore around Catalina.

You can learn a little more about them from a newspaper column I wrote a few years back:
