Guess was 29" - I was figuring 4" for the distance across your 4 fingers and then went from there.

Just for the record, I'm changing my guess, my new "offical" guess is 27'' and three qaurters, I was going to say 27 3/4" but since it wasn't one of the choices I went with 34"

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

It's amazing the variety of answers for a picture of a fish.
If you saw the fish in person, I wonder how the poll would go also.
Just goes to show you you can't tell by a picture how big fish are by the picture alone.
I'll tell tomorrow.

Not worryin bout that what ever happens happens Plus I have a wedding to go to that day.
OK now to the poll.
Maybe my tip was not explained well enough.
If Slips gourd is the size of one of them huge pumpkins u see at the Fair.
It might make a fish in a foto appear smaller rigtht....

The Equation: Width of Slip`s shoulders - distance from body factor + 6 inches = 31"
so it could be anywhere from 25 to 33 inches

OK everyone, I'll end the suspense.
Only 4 people got it correct so far. Professor Moriarty you were the second vote to get it correct.
35 inches was how big it was.
Very deceiving, when I saw the pic I thought I made a mistake so I measured the fish again. It wasn't held out away from me very far at all. Danny took the picture from the front of my little boat. Maybe that has something to do with why P.Moriarty got it right since he knows my boat and me.
Anyway , that was fun.
next time we'll do the weight of another fish sometime.

Never would have guessed 35, in fact, I didn't  I guessed much smaller as it looked decieving, thinking the arms were stretched out.
