Default How much does she weigh?

Ok guys, I've been having a disagreement with a guy at work on how much this beauty weighs...I say 6+ and he says "maybe" 5lbs. She was 22 inches on the button....I could fit my fist in her mouth with room to spare...What do yall think????

for future reference its much easier to tell when you dont hold it too close to the camera, easier to gauge

I say 6 is not out of the realm of possibility. The first pic makes that baby look huge. I have my first big bass on the wall she was over 6 and that fish looks at least that big.

RodnReel has a weight vs. length calculator. It says a 22" bass weighs 6.66lbs.
