I caught this huge bass out of a pretty small lake/pond. I didn’t have anything to weigh/measure it at the time but I do have this photo. I used a software called Fiji (imagej) to try and estimate the length based off of something for reference. I first used my body, I’m about 5’9’’, and then used my knuckle on my pointer finger for a second reference. I got roughly that this fish is 28-30 inches. According to what I’ve found online that means that this bass weighs 10+ pounds, which I could believe because it was pretty heavy. Does anyone else have any way to figure out the length or the weight and does that seem reasonable from the photo? Also how good is this for a pb? I’m pretty new to fishing, this is only my 3rd bass I’ve caught.

I mean I would say no shot in hell it’s 10 lb brother.. that is an incredible bass, though!! 5-6?
Just my guess, itd be a 6-7 (heh)
Salomon guy in Seattle here that’s better than my pb 20+ years of fishing. Only gone to bass lakes 1-2 times a year that time but still
Dude regardless of what anybody says, that’s a hawg. Mad props. Not many people catching fish like that regularly these days with it being so damn hot.
