Just as the title states... Some people buy FHM in pounds and some in thousands. What's an average poundage for 1000 FHM?

From Bill Cody in another post from last year:

Huge numbers/lb if they are hatchlings not so many if they are old breeders, which in the north, in the spring, most sold are older fish of 2.2"-3" usually 250 to 150/lb depending on FHM length. Plan on 200-250 per lb. In the fall new crop FHM are usually somewhat smaller 1.7-2.2" and 350-250/lb.
