Results are in...... Looks like it is dead on. Full bag 10.1 lbs Empty bag .08lbs How do you know that bag of sugar weighs 10 lbs. ? Cause it says so ? You think they weigh each individual bag before they ship it out. Just trying to cause trouble, lol. Something to consider though. Personally I think the guy has a 10 lb'er.

Pretty close to every bag. It's like every 5-10 bags and if one is found under then they have to weigh every bag for a certain number. So I figure the scale was pretty on. Even so it was a heck of a fish.

While having lunch with Larry today at the Oasis, we talked about how many "Ten Pounders" he and I had taken in to weigh only to find out they would only go Nine Something. He was just as glad as I was to see his scale is pretty much dead-nuts on at Ten Pounds. BTW, it is scheduled to be recalibrated and certified in April 2018 again. And now you know.

Am I the only one wondering what happened to the 10 pounds of sugar that was in the bag??? I don't care if it was 9.47 or 10.47. Either way its a GIANT of a fish and even more impressive that it was caught in the dead of summer.

Now I'm starting to question that supposed 14 pounder you caught back in 1942.... First off it was more than 14 and secondly it wasn't in 1942, thirdly it was weighed on certified scales by two different people one of which was a TP&W officer, fourthly (is that a word?) You saw the fish and fifthly (probably not a word either ) it was in a tournament and I won money for it. I was going to say sixthly but decided to start a new sentence. My point was not to say the scales were wrong but how do you know a 10 lb. bag of sugar weighs 10lbs. or a pound of coffee weighs 1 pound or a 3 lb. bag of flour weighs 3 pounds. As a reference a 2X4 is 3-1/2 by 1-1/5. Anyway, this was all in jest trying to make a couple of 'ol bass chasers giggle a little.

That is way too cool!
