From the In-Fisherman guys.

I have long considered a 19-inch fish to be a big one and an 18-inch bass to be a nice one. The chart agrees with me!

I will paddle eternal, Kevlar and carbon.

Cool chart, simple and easy to remember, any smallie over 19 inches is at least 6 pounds, Wink, wink. FRED

Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked, the good fourtune to remember the ones do, and the eyesight to tell the differance.

Only if you pose with it with your arms fully extended. You can make it a 60-pounder with a fisheye lens.

Just remember that the In Fisherman chart is based on the 75th percentile( 75% of fish this length will weigh less) so is pretty optimistic for an average fish.

So many fish,so little time

Holy Hell! I think I'd tip our canoe over in excitement if I ever caught a hog like that!

I have no photoshop skills either. Someone on this site took one of my pictures and made this bigger fish photo. I can't remember who did it. It has been a few years. Whoever did it, did a good job.

I've used the OFAH Ontario Angler Awards fish weight calculator per species. The generic formula looks like this:

Length: inches
Girth: inches
(Length) * (Girth * Girth) / 800
Calculates:
WEIGHT: lbs

The walleye denominator is 2700 I believe.
