Size Estimate?

[Cole Foster]

Caught on the river so I didn't have my scale/measuring board. Any estimates on the weight of this fish?

Nice river smalllie. It would be best to bring a scale to get a more accurate weight than guessing it from a picture. You can also use the following formula for a close estimate;

Length X Length X Girth / 1200 = estimated weight of bass. You can use fishing line to measure the length and girth.

Welcome aboard!

 

Maybe a couple pounds plus. Nice smallie.

Hard to tell with a fish that close to the camera but going off what I'm guessing the length is, I'd say in the 3lb range. It's a very pretty fish for sure.

Beautiful winter fish, I’d guess in the 3-4lb range. Nice fish no matter what ??

[slonezp]

2 pounds or so

Pretty smallie. Looks like a 3lb fish.

[Craigholland]

I'd say 3 ish as well.

I haven't caught a ton of SMB here in OK, but my biggest is 2.11 and I think yours is real close if not bigger. However, I would recommend buying a set of scales, I want to know for sure what a fish weighs. 

[LxVE Bassin]

Right around 3 pounds give it take.

The can be as mean as a rattlesnake at that size......
