Hard to judge without a known object next to the fish for comparison. Even a soda can would be helpful for perspective.

Regardless, that's a beautiful fish.

Nice fish! Consider a tape measure (the soft kind like seamstress's use) so you can measure girth as well as length. This is preferred if ever getting a replica, anyway. I understand there is a formula that provides a decent weight estimate based on girth/length. This info is often precalculated for you and presented in tabular form. I have a scale, but haven't needed to use it for a fish like that....yet.

How big? That's easy ~~ eatin' size!

Try this formula next time, its pretty accurate. Carry a tailor tape measure, get girth and length!

(Girth x Girth) x Length) / 800 = weight in pounds
(girth and length are inches)
