Actually the reason people talk in inches is the fact that thats how you determine the legal size, by length not weight. this applies to most saltwater limits, Stripers, Cod, Haddock.
when freshwater fishing I've always referred to fish by weight but now I find myself referring to length because its the 1st thing I check to determine wether I'm keeping it or not.
