Looks like a solid 9-10. Measurements will get you a good approximation if you have a ruler or golden rule.

I'm no expert but I'd say 9-10 is a fair guess, but you get an automatic 1-lb dignity-deduction for your footwear choice. smile

Very nice fish sir!

Somewhere between 9-12 and 10-8. I'm assuming you're 5'8
to 5'10" for reference on length. She's definitely in great shape. She also appears to be a relatively young fish. When they get real old, they get bug-eyed. There must be a good forage base in that lake. Stocked with shad? Fall fish will fool you on the weight too. On a fish like that, they will weigh probably 1/2 to 3/4 of a pound more than they appear. Congrats on the catch and release! Great fish.

Is that a trap tied on that duckett on the front deck? Catch her on that?

Lipless crankbait called Jackall T N DISK KNOCKER , SG Thread fin #60. It has metal disk inside that makes a sound you can hear the lure coming at the boat 20 ft away, caught lots of bass on it. that's not me in the funky shoes and I am 5'8'.

BC, you could have at least told us some details! Lure used, how deep, weather conditions and if you had to change underwears! grin
Did you by any chance see it before you caught it? Speak up! Inquiring minds want to know!!!!! I hope you bought some scales!!!!! Put'em in a piece of Tupperware and don't put the batter in the unit. It will keep for a long time!
