HOOPER

According to the state length X girth x girth divide x800

46 x19=874 x 19= 16606 divide x 800= 21lbs.

That dosen't sound right. I would think that the fish would weigh more then that. I would think that a 46" fish would be in the high 30's unless the fish looked like a torpedo.

Did it have a big belly??? Like a big fresh water bass or like a beer drinker with a big belly???

If it looked like a beer drinker then I would say it was in th high 30's -40's lb.

Con grates on catching the fish
