I am finishing up my wahoo book (350 pages, about two hundred photos and drawings - I haven't counted them yet) and I have a photo of a certified 152# and the current world record of 158# in it, along with others over a hundred. I've looked at the gallery photo again and compared it to the other two and I'm revising my guess up a bunch. It looks very much like the 152, so I'm guessing at least over one thirty. I sure hope that whoever caught it weighed it on a good scale! Unless those guys are all midgets, that puppy is pushing record proportions! The biggest on my boat so far was a 130 and this one looks just like him. What a beauty!

I got a wahoo woody over that thing!
