There is a way for determining the weight, bur you need to measure the length, and the girth of the fish. There's a simple formula that you then use, unfortunatly I forgot it, but will look around for it. Carl

Hope this helps! Please note a large girth can change the weight values.

I'd guesstimate your bass at about 3.60 pounds. Nice catch! Good luck, Johnnie
