This is tying into the carrying capacity/standing crop questions.

Is there any place on the internet that I can find out the number of fish of a given size and species that are in a pound?
i.e. there are "X" numbers of 2"-3" BG in a pound.

I was looking for the commonly stocked gamefish, panfish and baitfish.

Here is a start

Chapter 17 has a lot of info on fish-length/weight in pound units.

http://www.dnr.state.mi.us/publications/pdfs/IFR/ifrhome/Manual_intra.htm

May have to get out the calculator.
From table 17.2 a 2.5" BG weighs .0091 lbs.
1/.0091=109.89, so there would be approximately 110 2.5" BG per pound.

Skip all the stuff until where numbered page 5 begins. This is the start of table 17.2. The rest of it might give someone a headache.

scott, now Im sick but when I get to office I can get you info on weights for sizes of sportfish.

Got too close to the kids, huh? I hope you're feeling better soon. No rush. Thanks.

spent too much time out in the georgia cold chasing rats with wings? Now what are you going to do all day, besides lurk on Pboss???

I had a 3 day bug I just got over. Seems it's been going around here. I was the last one to get it. Glad it is over, get well soon

I would also be interested in the info you have, or anyone else has for that matter.

I would say what I caught but too graphic for this site. Im not from bathroom I will say that. Poor wyatt vomitting all nigh on sat you feel so helpless. I have actually taken care of a ton of business today Nate. i might just start staying home and work just from phone.

back on topic- here you go:

From Malone hatchery

Species Weight/1000 fish length (inches)
BG
small 4-17 1-3
medium 18-33 3-4
large 34-54 4-4.5
jumbo 55+ 4.5-6

res
small 2-15 1-3
medium 16-30 3-4
large 31-44 4-4.5
jumbo 45+ 4.5-6

black crappie- ironically same as res

from AL hatchery

6-8 inch channel cats- 65-80 lbs/1000
8-11 inch channel cats- 120-150 lbs/1000

hope this helps in your math. Ok gotta go. that typing worn me out.

Man, I hear you about that helpless feeling when your kids are sick...it's the WORST. Get well Greg...flu season is nearly over. I know my turn is around the corner.

How cool, I finally found a use for that avatar!

Greg:

You're excused you're sick. Are the weights/count reversed on the BG & RES?

I think it is over-thanks. It was intense but only about 24 hours of hell.

Stupid formatting. I had the table looking good but it got rid of spacing. Basiclly the first bg is
small-1-3 inches and weigh 4-17 lbs/1000fish and so forth. No esshup those are correct res weigh less than bg as little guys.

Yeah, sometimes transferring data isn't the easiest thing. (format wise)

Thanks Greg.
