I caught this fish and a few others about the same size last december, but just now got around to developing the pictures. Any ideas on how much this fish weighs? For reference, I am 6" tall and 185 lbs. I have not caught many bass over 2-3 lbs, and was originally thinking the fish was about 3.5, maybe 4 lbs, but after seeing others pictures of 5 and 6 lb'ers, I am thinking that this one may be more than 4.

Also, I caught a fish, sadly after the camera ran out of batteries, that was of very similar build, but measured 26.5 inches. Any ideas on how much that one weighed(I know knowing the length alone is not enough for an accurate estimate, but any ideas are appreciated)? (i was thinking somewhere between 8 and 12, but not sure).

thanks,
nate
