Thanks guys! I appreciate the welcome and guesstimates. I have felt it was around 5 lbs and being a fisherman I will use the largest estimates possible!.. From now on, it was a 5 pounder! Also, I now carry a small tape measure and digital scale in my tackle bag.
Thanks Guys, I tried to measure using my hand as aspect and came up with 18-20" but the fish had pretty big shoulders and was quite stout. Here is another shot with me holding horizontal and not out towards camera as far.
Caught this smallie this summer on Torch Lake in Michigan. Was in our recreation boat and not my fishing boat so had no ruler or scale. I get asked all the time what the size is. I know many of you are good at telling a fishes size by looks so I thought I would throw it out there to see what others think.
