I was curious if there were different methods on weighing the fish besides under the Gill.....and what the best digital scale brand is
Last year, and even this year so far we have caught some absolute PIGS, and for whatever reason, they arent weighing anything close to what we thought
Granted the excitment and human eye automatically add a Pound or so...im aware of that but
unless 90% of people are full of sh** when they tell there fish weights...which they probably are, something is wrong with our scale or method...I mean some Fish in BassMaster Mags are said to be 7lbs 6oz...when they look like they would weigh 2.8...anyways
We have a nice digital scale thats about a year old, we have weighed a 5lb weight with it and it works....supposedly
Im no rookie, and understand to catch a 7lber, its a friggin MONSTER...but i cannot believe some fish we have pulled out are weighing only 4.11 and not 5.5 or even 6 or 7
Just curious....
thanks gentlemen
id say, not seeing it in front of me that fish is 4.6
Very true people are off with weights a lot but also bad pics make a fish look small to.Chucks 7lber was huge pics dont do the fish justice every time but the berkley or rapala digitals for $20 are accurate!!!!

thats why I hate pics of big bass. Chucks 7 does not look 7 but it was weighed in front of a group trying to beat him. Johnnys 4 looks bigger in his pic from the same tourny.
