Here is a comparison chart of WAE and SAE where SAE are 20% heavier at length. The alpha and beta are solved first from two WAE length-weights that came off a chart. Not sure how current it is. If the original WAE chart is too old I could adjust. I do not remember the original source. Snipe, also if you have a set of samples for SAE, I could solve using that set specifically for SAE.
Probably the best way to compare WAE to SAE is AGE-WGT. IIRC one of Snipe's SAE exceeded 5 lbs in its 3rd year from stocking. Nice. Never heard of anyone doing something vaguely similar with WAE.
