i caught two 42" fish three days apart from each other. one fish weighed just under 27lbs (fat) and the other weighed 23.5 lbs (skinny)

if yours was fat it probably weighed 24-27lbs.

work hard, fish hard and die happy!

Could be as low as 22pounds and as high as 35 pounds. Need a pic to see the gut! I don't see a picture. Sometimes with a picture you can estimate better.

The shortest 30 I ever kept and weighed was 43". But a fat 42" could run 30. I'll give you 28 as a minimum. This one was 30 on the nose and 44"---on the thin side
