Justin Stane electroshocked a 17.5 inch, 3.85 pound LMB in my BOW today. Anybody have relative weight tables? Sure looked fat...

ewest has a chart in the second thread in the archives. His chart show a 17.5" lmb at 3.0 lbs @ 100% . Looks like you have a nice female there. I am betting there are others like her in the lake.


Do not judge me by the politicians in my City, State or Federal Government.

I agree, that is a nice LMB.

There are lots of relative weight calculators available. Here is a link to one of them.

Thanks, guys. Fishery in much better shape this year, I'm excited for next year. Huge numbers of CNBG and RES fry in the weeds, too, which is something I just didn't see last year. Biggest panfish 9.5 inches, maybe I can break personal best 10.5 inches next year.

But, as is pretty common, the 10 to 14 inch LMB were mostly below 100% RW. Need to take underperformers out! Also, maybe threadfin shad would help feed LMB of this size. Guess I need to restock forage pond with CNBG so can use it to supplement main BOW next year.
