bass wrangler569 Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Sorry to do this to you guys but... how big do you think this bass is. I caught it several years ago (if you can't tell by the picture lol) in a pond I used to fish when I was younger. I vaguely remember the fish being in the neighborhood of 23" but I didn't get to weigh it on a scale (I must have left my scale beside my coloring books at home ;D). I was going through some photos and I found it in amongst my other fishing pictures. So, what do you guys think weight wise. http://s649.photobucket.com/albums/uu211/basswrangler569/?action=view¤t=scan0002.jpg Quote
aarogb Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 I would say about 6 lbs. I could be wrong though just a vague guess. Quote
etommy28 Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 at 23 inches it is between 5 and 7 pounds. it just depends on fat or skinny, ect. Quote

bass wrangler569 Posted May 20, 2009 Author Posted May 20, 2009 at 23 inches it is between 5 and 7 pounds. it just depends on fat or skinny, ect. I do remember that it was FAT. Her sides were bulging out like crazy. She might have been spawning, I caught her in late late may early june Quote
Super User fishfordollars Posted May 20, 2009 Super User Posted May 20, 2009 Just under or over five lbs. Nice fish. Quote
frogtog Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Just from looks I would say 5.5 and I believe that I'm within a couple ounces. 8-) Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted May 20, 2009 Super User Posted May 20, 2009 i love these threads. :-X Yeah me too... At least 2 lbs, maybe three. :-X Quote
Eddie Munster Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 It's fat but it's mouth isn't that big. I'd say 4-5 lbs. Quote

lv2fish Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 No more than 3 1/2 lbs imo. Agree 100%. Not even close to 5 or 6. Quote
-HAWK- Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 That fish is a solid 2lbs. Not much more. Anyone that guessed 6lbs and up needs an eye exam. Quote
Super User cart7t Posted May 20, 2009 Super User Posted May 20, 2009 Smaller than Otis Goodmans 18 1/2lb......er uh.....15lb.....OK, it was slightly smaller........13lb.....I mean 12lb......OK, really it was only 10lb, giant he caught recently in Georgia. The official state (depending on who you ask) of the world record largemouth bass. Quote
bobbyK Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Based on the DT6, I would guess the fish is a DT34 or DT35 - somewhere in that range. ;D Quote
etommy28 Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 i was gping simply off the fact that it is stated it is 23 inches.if u look at a calabrated golden rule, It is about 6 pounds Quote
simplejoe Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 I'd say 2 pounds maybe pushing 3. There's no way that fish is more than that. joe Quote
