    Ok guys this goes to show how deceiving a picture can be. Actually Ol Swampy was the closest with his guess of 22 to 25. This fish believe it or not was just about one baitfish snack over 20 lbs.:big_smile: Thanks for playing along.

    Until I get off the skunk list, I demand all photo's have a pic of the scale showing the weight!!!:wink:

    Sorry, after last nights guessing of fish weights, I realize I will never make a living at fortune telling and better stick with my day job. Every fish I guessed the weight on, turned out 20% lighter than my guess.:embarassed:

    Maybe I should have used a bigger cast net? Then they may have looked smaller.:wink:

    Very good guess Behiter. It weighed 40 pounds exactly.

    Doug,
    What is the prize for being closest?:smile2:
    I think when guessing at pictures you have to look at the way the person is holding it as much as the fish itself. I could see your extended right arm and looked like your left was fully extended behind the fish to getting it closer to the camera. Fun stuff!

    Nice flat head anyhoo! I still haven't broken that 20 mark on a flathead yet. We don't target them and every so often luck into a small one.
