Guess the weight...

Looks can be deceiving.

When I caught my first bass I was hooked more than the fish.

Sorry for the delay. Client had an emergency.

Fish was caught Aug 29; 8:30am near Greenwich CT on a fresh chunk. Had one OK run in the begining on light conventional tackle, I thought the fish was a short. Couldn't believe how big it really was when it got to the boat.
Weighed 20 pounds 2 ounces on a recently calibrated Bogagrip but it measured 42 inches and was not skinny.

Clammer and RIROCKHOUND had the best guesses. Your prize is to catch her next. We let her go....

Anybody know what programs I can use to re-size the picture so it doesn't look like a sardine???

Played around with the photo program that came with a Canon Elph digital camera and resized the pixels under 800 after cropping. May sound complicated but I am not a computer geek although sometimes I wish I were.
