Not sure about the girth, but that looks like a 2.8 - 3.2 lb. fish to me if that helps.

[bkoguy07]

yeah I was thinking 3lb as well.

[JShrock07]

I would estimate the weight to be about 3 lbs as well, just a guess though on the girth I would say about 9-10 "

I landed the exact same size fish but possibly a tad skinner three days ago and it weighed in at 2lb 3oz.

To me that looks a lot like most of the 3 pound bass I catch

Le's assume it is 14 inches.

17 x 17 x 14 divided by 1200 = 3.37 pounds.

But this is a guess.

Remember this formula and you can figure out the weight -

LENGTH x LENGTH x GRITH = POUNDS

               1200

Give it a try.

Id say 12 inch girth, making it almost 3 pounds.

A 17" bass would have to be pretty fat to hit 3lbs. This one looks on the thin side -I'd estimate 2-8 to 2-10.

16 in. 2 lb. 4 oz.

17 in. 2 lb. 12 oz.

20 in. 4 lb. 9 oz.

21 in. 5 lb. 6 oz.
