I'd guess 7.5-8.5

There's no way that fish is 10 lbs

But it's definitely a good catch!

I'd be glad to land it

I think the fish is closer to the camera than the ruler or his left hand is much bigger than his right hand. I'd say 4.5 #'s ... good eating size!

I bet he can find a decent scale on sale today and he will know what his fish weigh from now on...

This guy I know who caught the fish, he photo-shopped the fish, he has one hand that's twice the size of the other, he breaks the jaw of every fish he catches just on general principal AND needs a good scale.

He also needs to have someone measure his measuring board, I almost forgot that.

I am going to pass all this info on. Thanks fellas!

Long fish, probably close to 24". Not much girth so I'd guess between 8-9#....

It never ceases to amaze me how many avid bass fishermen don't own a good scale. I keep two in my boat. One is a very accurate digital, the other is a Boga Grip in case the battery is low on the digital. Not bashing on your bud, just sayin.

Your a good friend. He needs to understand that you can not fool people of the TFF Bass section.

You have it all wrong, sir. I know his board is 18". Knowing the length of the board is how I was able to determine the actual length of the fish (using real numbers not just guessing). I feel for you that you are unable to grasp the concept, though. Sorry it's smaller than you and your buddy thought, but it's just a fish in the end, so it's no biggie.

I literally did the math my friend. You are the one who is wrong. It does not hang 3 or 4" below the stick. I can tell you that with 100% certainty. You can argue that the fish would be a little longer with its jaw closed, so you have a valid point there. However, The difference would not be close to 4", maybe 1/2".

If you don't believe me, take the measurements for yourself and see what you get.

Side note:
Am I putting way too much energy into the length of one fish on the Internet? Absolutely, but it's the holidays and I'm laying on the couch, so why not?


1/2"....? You are waaaaay off my friend. I counted every pixel myself and I have witnesses
