Default Big fish?

I was fishing the Manistee this weekend and caught this sucker. I fought it FOREVER and had a blast doing it. The neighbors had to help me land it and told me it was a big sucker. I was wondering if this truly is a big one. I'm guessing it was 18-20" and 4-5lbs. BTW, the trout fishing SUCKED! I caught a few, and no size at all.
