Object Oriented Basics

I keep getting "Bummer! Try Again"

<?php

class Fish {
    public $common_name;
    public $flavor;
    public $record_weight;

    function __construct($name, $flavor, $record) {
        $this->common_name = $name;
        $this->flavor = $flavor;
        $this->record_weight = $record;
     } 

    public function $getInfo() {
            return "A " . $this->common_name . " is an " . $this->flavor . " flavored fish. The world record weight is " . $this->record_weight . ".";
    }

}//end class

$bass = new Fish("Largemouth Bass", "Excellent", "22 pounds 5 ounces");
echo $bass->getInfo();
?>
