I don't believe it

25-30 even tho the picture is not that great. It has a good gerth. It may be a 40-46 inch fish.

Judging by the hand/arm length and girth I would say 25 pounds-ish. Unless those guys are freakishly tall, then I would say 26 pounds.

The head looks much larger than it is due to the cut up gills

For comparison, this fish barely broke the 30lb mark at 46"
I'm 6'3" and not holding the fish out...

Why would you hold the fish like that anyway?
