50 lbs give or take. We have caught 3 50s over the last month and they were 46-48.5 inches.
There is a fine line between fishing and floating around like an idiot!!

No scale, then measure its girth as well. Weight = (Length x Girth x Girth) / 800. Gives a very close estimate.

Girth x Girth x length. Divided by 800 ! Estimate weight.
