Any thoughts on length/weight of another one that gets away......?

That's a beast! loved the expression on your mates face with the small tuck of the shoulders. Priceless!

What a fish, pity you did not land it.
Well in excess of 10 pounds.
Wonder how long he managed to stay "uncatchable" till you hooked into him

I had similar scenario in NZ, a couple of years ago,
The biggest/longest trout I hooked into, had it on for about 10 maybe 15 seconds, he moved his head to left right left and line off, just above the hook, line off. Terrible feeling
