May be of interest to Bass fisherman... we modified TPWD's Largemouth Bass table used to estimate the weight of Bass based on it's length. We modified it to make it simpler to lookup the weight. Largemouth Bass Estimator.

Not certain, went with TPWD's data. May try to compare it with their info and see how close it is. Made this mainly so I could do a quick measure of the Bass' length, enter the info, and get an estimate.

The table was too hard to view on my phone.

Scales are cheap, especially for guys with hundreds or thousands of dollars of tackle. I don't understand the issue.

No issue... when I fish on short notice while commuting I don't have scales. But, I know the length of my shoe and can get a rough measure of a bass' length. I do have my phone and can estimate the weight with the link.
