Creekcrappie Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 I estimate this bass being between 7-8 pounds. Tell me if I am wrong. Quote
Super User jbsoonerfan Posted May 11, 2014 Super User Posted May 11, 2014 Way too difficult to tell by that pic. Could be 4 or it could be 9. Just get a set of scales and you will know what it weighs. Many times those 7-8 pounders turn into 5 pounders and those 5 pounders turn into 3 pounders when a set of scales is put to good use. 5 Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted May 11, 2014 Super User Posted May 11, 2014 You can not afford to know the truth until you buy a scale. 3 Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted May 11, 2014 Super User Posted May 11, 2014 There is really nothing in the pic to use to size the fish against. Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted May 11, 2014 Super User Posted May 11, 2014 Very Nice Bass for sure. I didn't weight this one either but they may have been close to the same. A-Jay 1 Quote
Super User Jigfishn10 Posted May 11, 2014 Super User Posted May 11, 2014 No matter how big it was or how much it weighed, I'm sure it was and will be quite a memorable fish for a lifetime. Quote
Arv Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 Like others have said, its really impossible to know w/o a scale. Especially with nothing to reference against, I would guess anywhere from 3 - 8lbs. Quote
Super User F14A-B Posted May 11, 2014 Super User Posted May 11, 2014 Very Nice Bass for sure. I didn't weight this one either but they may have been close to the same. A-Jay I gotta ask... Was it spit up? Or was it caught on a Senko! Geez it's tiny!!! Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted May 12, 2014 Super User Posted May 12, 2014 I gotta ask... Was it spit up? Or was it caught on a Senko! Geez it's tiny!!! I snagged it with a crank bait. A-Jay Quote
Weld's Largemouth Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Based on the photo I would give it between 4-5 pounds no more but maybe less Quote
Trek Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 I know the bass we catch in tournaments shrink a pound or so from the time we put them in the live well to the time we bring them to the scales. But I have heard that a bass grows the most from the time you release it to the time you tell your buddies. Quote
Super User WRB Posted May 25, 2014 Super User Posted May 25, 2014 Need to know length and girth to estimate weight; L x L x G / 1200 = weight in lbs Use your line to measure the bass and save the pieces to measure later, if you don't have a tape measure or scale. Length; measure bass laying flat from closed mouth to end of tail, Girth around the widest area with dorsal fin down. Tom Quote

Smallmouth Hunter Posted May 25, 2014 Posted May 25, 2014 I'd say 4-5.. Judging by your profile pic, you are young, and look to have small hands. In the pic, your hand seems pretty big next to that fishes mouth. Quote
