Hey guys I caught my PB just a few days ago and sadly I don't have a scale. I do have a measurement and he is measured at 21 1/2 inches, girth was around 16 inches. A angler stop by to complement me and said it was not a 4 lb but a 5LBer. I really think he is a 5 lber and he is the biggest fish I caught (My PB). I don't have any scale so I don't know the actual weight. Can you guys please tell me how many pounds does he look like he weight? I would like to place his weight with what the majority says. Please give your honest thought positive or negative. Thank You!      Length 21 1/2in, Girth 16in

 

 

see my reply in your introductions post.

Hello and Welcome to Bass Resource ~

Congrats on that Beautiful Bass and your new Personal Best.

It's really hard to determine a weight from a photo.

But that a good one for sure.

And I have to ask, what's up with blacking out your face ?

6 lbs or more. Judging from a few that I have recently caught and measured and weighed. 

@wukong,

That fish looks huge. 

There is a Bass Resource "Fish Weight Calculator" (I call it a fish weight estimator).

I hate to tell you this, but the number that comes up for  21.5" length, 16" girth, is 7.25 lbs!

Thank You!

Welcome to BR. I would guess your PB is between 5-6 lbs.
