It is kinda funny how big they seem when you catch them especially during derbies etc. More than once during the ESLO derbies we've rushed one in that looked "thirtyiish" only to find that it was mid twenties. Once they get up to size in terms of length the main difference becomes the thickness of the back and to a degree their gut and  you really need to see a bunch of them before you can improve your "guesstimations". Only real way is weighing them on a certified scale

Possibly a $10,000.00 error. Oh well, live and learn!

I keep a cheap scale on my boat, that is surprisingly accurate. Cost less than $20.

Good fish no matter what the weight and i'm sure there are folks out there that have never actually caught one that are amazed by it too

[Masterb8r]

It was scaled on a accurate scale and yes it was a huge mistake not getting into the derby

Getting into the tournament would have insured no fish over 20!! That being said this mistake will not be made again.

That's a nice fish! We've got to teach you to do a "Florida push" though .

Good grief, the man is holding at an angle for one, and he himself may be a big guy. Congrats on a nice fish[emoji1303]

Lol, reminds me of the tv show: “Fishing with Olando Wilson”. Old show on TNN. Someone out there knows what I’m referring to.

Bentrod, I actually believed from your first post, that the fish looked like it could weigh 30 LBS. Great fish, bigger than any I have caught! I was just saying that its nice to have a scale, especially for me,  who last week had a 14 pounder that I thought was 25!.
