Im not sure whether or not to call this a 6 pounder. First time fisherman, so I went with the cheapest scale possible since I wasn’t sure I would even catch anything at all. It measured in at 19 inches, but it looks pretty damn chunky.
I tried weighing different objects I knew the weight of at home with the scale, it scaled pretty much spot on but changed a lot with movement.
Ive seen lots of other 6 pounders and they are mostly in the 22+ inch range. Did mine just happen to have eaten a big bluegill or something before I hooked it? Just a stout fat female? Does it look like a 6 pounder to you guys?

I’d bet your spot on. Probably just ate. Or could very well just be a very short and stout bass. Either way, absolute hog, good catch, brother.

Here’s a couple of still images, including the scale shot. That last digit on the tail in the tape measure shot is 19in. First big fish of my life, in complete darkness so I was kind of panicking, I ran over my rod will getting my stuff to measure it LMFAO
3 lbs at best.
