Guys - Those data are available, you just have to dig and sort it out. The data are there, the chart just has to be created. Carlander Handbook of Freshwater Fishery Biology Vol 2 has mean lengths and weights (including hi-lo ranges) and the states where data were collected for LMB up to ages of 10, beyond that the number of locations of each age class dwindles to one - four records. I cannot testify to the accuracy of the aging techniques of each study.
