Super User Paul Roberts Posted July 13, 2008 Super User Posted July 13, 2008 Welcome! That is a very large northern largemouth. All any formulas can do is get close. What you have is probably a pretty good estimate.
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted July 13, 2008 Super User Posted July 13, 2008 just call it 7 and a half and after you're done calling it 7 and a half, GO BUY A SCALE! ;D ;D
Evan Sharp Posted July 13, 2008 Author Posted July 13, 2008 lol i bought a scale and now im done with online scales so im gona do tests tomarrow and c how accurate the online scales r just for laughs
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted July 13, 2008 Super User Posted July 13, 2008 the scale on bass resource consistantly weighs fish higher than they really are. the best weight estimation (IMO) would be this formula: LENGTH x LENGTH x GRITH = WEIGHT IN POUNDS 1200
Super User Tin Posted July 13, 2008 Super User Posted July 13, 2008 Do they not teach spelling and grammar in South Lyon?
Super User MALTESE FALCON Posted July 13, 2008 Super User Posted July 13, 2008 Welcome to the best fishing site on the net. It's good to see another Michigan member. Falcon
JShrock07 Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Do they not teach spelling and grammar in South Lyon? HAHAHAHA
Big-O Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 7.25 sounds right but like Paul said it's big no matter what and I would rather forget to bring the scale than the Camera. Good Fishin Big O
MichiganFisherman Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Good job, man. What did you catch her on? and... no pics?
Super User David P Posted July 13, 2008 Super User Posted July 13, 2008 No fish weight calculator is 100% correct. I had a 8-13 that the went 8-6 on the calculator. My 13lber I just caught is "15-3" according to the weight calculator. These are the reasons everyone should own a scale. I'd say it's somewhere between 7 and 8 so just call it 7 1/2.
paragon Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 evan If you have the pictures, that fish qualifies as a master angler LMB. Check out the DNR site to submit your catch. I have been working hard all summer to get my 2008 patch.

Evan Sharp Posted July 14, 2008 Author Posted July 14, 2008 MichiganFisher its a funny story so... i was all done fishing one day at my gravel pit and my friend wasnt rdy so i was just casting a 3inch rapala black top and white bottom and it was like 6ft out and i wipped her up on shore and grabed her like it was my mom fallin off of a cliff so to answer ur question it was a 3inch rapala and can link pic 4 some reason.

paul. Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 evan, i don't think there's any way a fish with those measurements is 7-anything. my best guess would be 6.5-6.75. either way though, that's a very nice fish. good job.
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted July 14, 2008 Super User Posted July 14, 2008 Tin y dont u get a life its called abrevations and i bet im smarter than u. sersoully i bet my school is bigger than ur joke state rode island whoa that stuff isnt tolerated on this board! suprised a mod hasn't caught that post yet. tin is a funny guy and he was joking. there aren't many personal attacks on this board and if there are any they are resolved. you should consider changing your ways if you plan on sticking around here for a while.

Please don't butcher the English Language. As far as the smarter bit, why don't you show it and type in complete sentences. The State of Rhode Island or any of it's inhabitants has nothing to do with this discussion. Tin is a well respected member of this board who was pulling your chain. Please refrain from the insults or I will be forced to release the hounds on you. Believe me, you don't want the hounds released!!
JShrock07 Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 I just love seeing how everyone can get along so well. I agree though this is not a site where we disrespect anyone for any reason, yes we may dissagree but we never disrespect. We all like to have a little fun so calm down and be happy there is such a site on the internet to help you with your question. And by the way... you are the one asking questions and if you start out with an attitude many guys on here will not try to help someone who is rude.
Super User Tin Posted July 14, 2008 Super User Posted July 14, 2008 Tin y dont u get a life its called abrevations and i bet im smarter than u. sersoully i bet my school is bigger than ur joke state rode island Thank you for proving my point. But I apologize because sarcasim is difficult to pick up on online.

Missed this one... Back to the original question, the various formulas provide a pretty accurate "estimate" for the weight of a bass. If you want to be "precise", buy a scale. Regarding protocol, Jimzee summed it up: Look Teenie Bopper, we don't type in abbreviations on this board. Please don't butcher the English Language.

Evan Sharp Posted July 14, 2008 Author Posted July 14, 2008 because of this outburst i have decided to type in full sentences because i'm scared of the hound dogs. please dont kick me off of this site i'll be so upset. and for you tin im not sorry.
