WW,

What's the largest atrox you've come across? Are 2m specimens in existence?

I've found, that as long as you don't try to physically pin them(wild aspers), they aren't terrible to bag. They run, but rarely strike. Only when restraining to pin have they gotten irritated.

Your worst asper experiences, were they simply bagging, or restraint for scale clipping, venom extraction, etc??

MCH
