Mykester Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 Buy a scale please http://lunkerlink.com/troutcalc.html 22 inch length and 32 inch girth comes out to almost 20 pounds... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebastian Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 (edited) http://lunkerlink.com/troutcalc.html 22 inch length and 32 inch girth comes out to almost 20 pounds... Too bad the fish is apparently "32"length with 22" girth" so according to your super accurate calculator the fish is 28.16lbs. You're putting in the numbers reversed and its under 20lbs. Either way that scale is way off. Some Steelheaders catch their fish 12-13lbs fish and automatically its 20lbs. It's a solid fish but nowhere near 20lbs. Carry a scale and i think you'll be surprised how much your "20lber" weighs. Pushing the fish against the camera lens doesn't make it any bigger. Take a legit shot of the fish or pics with the measuring tape next to the fish or simply buy a scale. Edited March 29, 2010 by sebastian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timmeh Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 (edited) Congrats on the beauty of a fish. Nice to know it went back to swim again. It's too bad some people feel the need to drag you down. Edited March 29, 2010 by timmeh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solopaddler Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 always has to be someone with sand in their ass I tend to agree with your statement..... Here's a 34" inch very fat fish I caught on the Muskegon last week. We put it on the boga just for fun and she was just under 13lb's: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinker Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 (edited) That fish is closer to 20lbs than most of you guys will ever catch!! Give the guy a break, whether its 20lbs, or 10lbs, its a freakin beauty buck.........anywhere you go!!! Nice work Shaynebow!! I'd bet its pretty close to 20lbs btw Solo, I don't think your fish has near the girth of the OP. Still a beauty, just the same! S.
