I would estimate at between 10 and 12 pounds, or between 5 and 6 kilo's... or thereabouts, but a 20 pounder?...mmmm nah.

Yes, but is MC as big as Mark???

Andre you are completely clueless at gauging weight, stick to fingerling and pans size stuff please. That fish is a solid 20lb fish,awesome!

John, you don't say fork or total so that part is confusing but nonetheless a monster of note. To give you an idea, a largie of 68cm fork and 40cm girth is a 10lb fish give or take. Below is a 11lb fish. (weighed with a boga

)
