    I know the answer... and it was weighed on a certified scale. Are you good enough to see past the extended arm photography? :D :D :D:ninja:

    I am basing this off of solid math....

    Gauging the size of the fish.... off of your extremely small head.... Now subtracting arm stretch....

    I come up with a solid 12-14 ounces! :evilgrin:
