lunker
Angler's prize catch
A lunker is an exceptionally large fish, especially a bass or trout that a recreational angler would be proud to catch: He pulled a real lunker out of that pond.
The term is informal fishing slang, conveying both size and the thrill of the catch.
By extension, lunker occasionally describes anything impressively oversized.
