I was hoping it was bigger, because man it was hard to reel in.

I know know how I would go on a 40kg+ fish, if this one is only 18kg!!

hit it on the head Trav, 18-20kg looks pretty accurate.

Seems as everyone is roughly the same, I too would have said 17-20kg. As for the fight, some fish just have the GO in them ;D

I'll keep this thread rolling with a pic of my own, I'd be interested in some guesstemations on weight also.
