He's holding out that fish to make it look bigger, but it's a TOAD, non the less.
Mid to upper 20's. Maybe 30. Hard to say from that photo.
All I know that it is BIG, regardless of photo, or how it is being held.
Ooof.

Look at the size of that adipose fin. It's huge!
Would you eat it?

If you look real close you can see where he hit it with the oar. Nice job!

I pitch a lot of dead carcasses in the 20 lbs. range back into rivers but nothing like that fish!

Just scrape the white sore spots off and it'll smoke up just fine.

I'd put that one in the smoker long before 99% of the "chrome" fall kings. Be willing to bet that the meat carried far more color and texture than most fall kings  Nice fishey!

That would be some fun though. Using Silver gear, that'll put a bend in your rod. Wonder what it was caught on?
