Boy I'd be happy to hit one of those about now. Anything that will pull drag would do for me. Nice catch.

Glad I'm not the only one.....
17lb typically means a GORILLA head and shoulders.....

Scale me be a bit rusty. No mal intent /meanness whatsoever but that fish is lighter than 17#/ Nice blue though. Hope I don't catch any this year.

Where's your garage? Haha.
Nice blue!

The 17# I caught (looking at pic on wall) looked like an entirely different animal given its size! Huge belly, enormous head and shaped more like a tuna/football!!!

17 lb Blue
 
This blue was just 17lbs when caught. What you are looking at is the fish that was gutted 5 hours prior having 2 whole fish and multiple squid removed from its gut. When landed, it's belly was very distended and it looked more football-like. Sorry for the confusion.
