Ha. Nice pic! I am not sure if its 20?! I would say that 12-15lbs would be a good guess its just about impossible to tell from a photo...you can use your pointed finger knuckle as a scale most peoples are about 1"

15 or so, but a very solid looking fish. Massive tail, I bet it had the drag screaming.

Yea i was leaning towards 15lbs the fish looked a lot bigger in person. She was pulling drag for sure the only way to describe it is run away freight train, cant wait until i catch a 20+!

Ah yes the Zach pose (or the Justin pose if you're a CAGger).

Nice fish! I'd guess mid to high teen.
