I am guessing close to 20#...but here is the story...
I hooked the fish and played it for nearly 10 minutes before it got into a root wad and snapped me off above the swivel. The root wad was just a few feet from the bank, but was too deep to wade out to get it, but I could see it thrashing around trying to get free. It finally broke the leader just above the hook, but it was to tired to swim away and floated right to me...Good thing I had my lucky Dolphins hat on.
