    Default Fake or not?

    I call fake. He doesn't seem to be struggling with the weight at all, and a fish that big would be heavy!!

    Kind of 50/50 for me. It looks real. 30 pounds is not that much....don't really need to struggle. On the other hand the head kinda looks messed up to me. Strange indeed though.

    that's a lot of slime coat; struggling or not, you'd think getting a grip would be difficult

    Fake... if you've ever gone salmon fishing, think of how much they weight and how hard it is to carry. I can barely handle a 8 lb (weight and slime). There is no way that guy is holding a 30 lb in that position.

    He certainly looks to be holding that fish up very effortlessly. I think fake. A struggling slimy fish isn't that easy to hold, and definitely not with two hands straight out in that position.
