How much do you think this one weighed?

[HillBilly Willie]

Caught this one on a lake near my house a couple of weeks ago.  Didn't have any scales with me to weigh it so I just had to guess.   What do ya'll say it weighs?    Sorry the picture quality is so bad, the picture was taken with somebody elses camera so I had to take a picture of a picture.

[Bassackward]

Nice fish! Hard to guess from a picture, but it looks like it would go little over 7lbs.  What did you catch her on, and where? Awesome fish

[HillBilly Willie]

Caught her on a white/chartreuse Terminator T-2 spinnerbait on Caney Lake in Louisiana.

I would agree a little over 7# Nice fish!

http://www.bassresource.com/bassfishing/fishcalculator.html  if you don't have a scale you can measure the length and girth and this link willl help you estimate.

5.5- 6 lbs.  Nice fish but it is hard to tell without measurements.

[The_Natural]

Between 7 and 8 based on the size of the mouth and that you are actually a ways away from the camera.  

[RoLo]

Comparing the size of your fist to the bass's mouth, I'd guess about 7.5 lbs.

Fine bass no matter what she weighs.

7.345324557564....lol but probably around there

[arthurspooner13]

Yeah i agree that it's somewhere around the 7 lb range.

Nice fish.

And i absolutely love those terminator chartruse/white skirts. Hands down my favorite skirt for spinnerbaits.

Hey Hillbilly, that's a really nice fish ! I think it could be bigger than these guys are giving it. You could have held it straight towards the camera, and a little further from your body..... but anyway, I'd give it 8 to high 9's.

BTW, I fished Caney Lk. one time, while I was living in Louisiana. Didn't catch squat. I did see some giant Grass Carp though..... I mean like 50 lb'ers ! Too bad I couldn't have hooked one of those :-)

They used to have this big aquarium in one of the marinas, with a couple 16 to 17 lb bass in it ! That was really impressive. Caney Lk. does have the state record still, doesn't it ???

Stick a pig !  :-)

The length says 7 or 8 pounds but the girth says more like 6 or 6.5 pounds.

Nice fish no matter what she weighs

[T-rig]

I also say it weighs about 7lbs. That fish is real nice, almost looks like a mount.

[mattm]

I'd say right around 8.

Yep, Brown's Landing has 2 huge bass in aquariums.   One is the state record.  I think it was around 15 1/2 pounds when caught back in '94, so there's no telling how much it weighs now.

[David P]

I'd say 6 - 7 1/2lbs

[ba7ss3in]

I'm thinking 7 to 8lber
