How much does it weigh Part II 2024


fishing user avatarEddie Munster reply : 

You guys may remember my first thread where I posed a question about how much this fish weighed = http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1213960688/0

Well I caught another nice one and this time I did weigh it and measure it. I'd like to see what people's opinions are of the fish below. You'll have to excuse the angle as I didn't have my kids with me this time to take the pictures.

I cant cant see the pic dude. When you copy+paste a photobucket link on BassResource.com you have to use the bottom link it offers you. I think its called "image code" but it is the bottom one....

No I had it right but goofed and named the fish at photobucket by it's weight which would have given it away. Sorry. Look again.  ::)

8 or so.  Nice fish.  Congrats.


fishing user avatarFivePoundBluegill reply : 

Around 8 LBS... Thats a hawg for sure


fishing user avatarEddie Munster reply : 

Funny thing is I just got a 9' Pond Prowler (used) and the plug started leaking after a fishless morning. I had some hits but couldn't hook a thing. Decided to wrap it up and while the water was draining out of the boat, I decided to throw a worm near the boatramp. I was thinking 'after all that time spent messing with that boat, watch me catch one from shore'.....2nd cast and this babe was on the line. Even had to jump in the water a little because the bank was so steep.

LOL are you seriousthats at least 6.75lbs


fishing user avatarEddie Munster reply : 

Okay guys, I'll end the suspense so you can start breathing again.  :D

It measured out at 24.5 inches and weighed just a hair over 8 lbs. For those that guessed around 8 lbs I have a nice prize for you. You download the picture of it, send it to me with a self addressed stamped evelope and I'll autograph it for you.  8-)

I'm still laughing at myself for catching it from shore after putting in so much time getting my little jon boat ready for the water. But hey, if the plug didn't leak, I wouldn't have been casting from shore while waiting for the boat to drain. The bank was so steep I had to go in to land it. Also, it was pretty stressed (jumped like 3-4 times & fought really hard) so I had to wade on the boat ramp with her til she recovered enough to swim away.

Thanks guys.

wow, this thread sure goes to show you how hard it is to guess a fish's weight, we guesses ranging from 4.5 to 9.5 pounds. :-?

That's the precise reason to get a scale and NOT rely on your or other's opinions. I just need to take a camera with a timer on it rather than rely on a cell phone camera with no one to help me.

Actually it went from maybe a pound to 27 pounds if you want to get technical. ;D


fishing user avatarLCpointerKILLA reply : 

it's obvious that that is a huge fish


fishing user avatarNitroMan reply : 

If all we win is a signature.... Screw this game! >:(

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA J/P!!!!!!!!!!
