I caught this large mouth but didn’t have a scale. My brother’s hand is above average in size, and has a 10.5 shoe. He’s 5’11 for reference. The lure is a Cotton Cordell 2.5 inch lipless bait. Any estimations would be great! I’m guessing it’s around 4 pounds or high 3?

  1. You can ask AI to estimate too: based on your second picture this is what it said:

    Based on the photos, I can give a rough estimate of the fish’s weight by comparing it to the shoe as a reference. If we assume the shoe is a typical size (about 11 inches / 28 cm in length), the fish appears to be around 17–20 inches (43–51 cm) long.

    For a bass-like fish, here’s a rough estimate:
    • 17–20 inches of length can weigh between 2–4 pounds (0.9–1.8 kg), depending on its girth.

    So, I’d estimate this fish weighs around 2.5 to 3.5 pounds (1.1 to 1.6 kg).
