How Big Would You Say She Is?

[NC bassin]

I'm horrible at estimating, but how big would you say she is? when I got her out of the water, I figured around 3 1/2 or 4

Looks closer to the 3lb mark to me

[MarkH024]

3 tops would be my guess..  Not a very big mouth compared to your hand, so definitely not a 4+.

[NC bassin]

the reason i said 4, was because of the body. and weight

[SuskyDude]

2 - 2 1/2 pounds or so.

 

Get a scale and know for sure. But be forewarned, they always shrink one they're weighed!!

Buy a soft measuring tape that a tailor or seamstress would use. Wally world sells them as well as any fabric shop. You can measure length and girth. Google "fish weight calculator" enter your numbers and the species and it will give you a rough estimate

2.5-3

2 - 2 1/2 pounds or so.

That's about my guess as well.

 

Keep it up.

I would say just under 3 like 2.12

[PABASS]

Maybe 3#, more than 2.5#, she has a pretty color is that light red typical of fish in that pond?  Almost looks like a rainbow trout color.

[Arv]

Big enough for me.

[stkbassn]

Nice fish!

 

I always let my partner bring his scale...I'm afraid to buy one because as I soon as I do I know I won't catch anything worth weighing.... LOL

 

Keep the pics coming!

Those are incredibly tough shots to guess a weight from.  I've seen 5's look like 3's and visa-versa.

Cool catch, the fish looks long and slender. Under 3lbs.
