I'm no expert by any means at guesstimating the weight of a bass from a photo, but that looks like a fat fish. I'd have given it 8+ pounds, myself.

nice one.

Aha, wait a minute, you're pulling the old "arms straight out, push the fish at the camera so's the fish'll look bigger" trick, aren't you? :mrgreen:

Still, I'd say over the 8 lbs.
