One of the guys in our Wed. club watched this guy fight this fish on 8lb line for like 1.5hours......Any ideas on what this beast weighs?

Big belly and nice head, I would guess in the lower 30's.

I would agree with the estimate- looks fat and healthy, probably mid to low 30s. Nice fish!

His belly's not that big, but he looks pretty healthy. I'd say a solid 200 lbs. It would be easier to judge if that fish wasn't in the way.

I caught one in the low 30's this year and this one looks bigger. I'm guessing 37-38 lbs.
