How tall are you lol? Either way great healthy fish and even better job on the release congrats. I would say under 20 but close to it.

waterninja 06-11-2013 02:55 AM

jr! long time no post. that monster laker almost made you smile.
did you win an ice cream with that beauty?
very good of you to release that fish. hope you catch it again 20 years from now (and i'm there with you to help you pull it on to the boat).

keep6matt 06-11-2013 08:09 AM

15.5 lbs due to the thickness and depth of that fish, she is a beauty!

Barnes19 06-11-2013 08:59 AM

Big shoulders and a fat belly, my guess is 20.5lbs

Fishfinder 06-11-2013 09:01 AM

FattyBoBatty! Good job!:)
I'll say 18.5.

Teamprotz 06-11-2013 09:40 AM

I' m with Justin , just shy of 20. Thick short fish. Very nice.

Bound2Fish 06-11-2013 10:53 AM

I would have to say somewhere in the 18-20 pound range.

BGSH 06-11-2013 01:48 PM

Teamprotz 06-11-2013 02:13 PM

Congrats. Beautiful fish!!! Little confused though.. You were telling me i should have kept the 16 pounder I iced this winter. Have a change of heart when comes to keeping 20 year old fish?

jaystev 06-11-2013 08:01 PM

Nice one im guessing 22lbs.

mosbos 06-11-2013 08:11 PM

I would of kept her if I had a frezzer to keep her in .
Caught her, day one on a 7 day trip.

-JR- 06-11-2013 08:28 PM

This should answer the question how big it was.
Fish had to swim around to burp out the air ,after a while she did swim down .

Just click on picture ,and it will start playing .
