Weight Estimates?? Be generous for a change? Start with the idea that I am 7foot and the other dude is damn near 10' we each weigh about 400 ;-)

For real though.. how much you think that bruiser weighs? It was the biggest boat king I got this year

Sam22
09-26-2008, 12:48 AM
Nope I don't know really was wondering. And Look, I am not holding it out toward the camera, you can see my elbows and how my fingers are porportioned to my body.

I was just saying that because you're holding it in the traditional "hold it out" manner. Awesome fish no doubt. Not trying to start anything by any means.

Well minus guts head and spawn minus spine and fins SKIN ON

add .25 lb for spices and cure plus water weight and minus water loss for 6-9 hrs smoke time I would guess around 8.75 lbs ... :corkysm55:corkysm55

First pic is 17lbs.

Second pic is 25, 26 lbs.

The fish on bottom is 16lb 10oz. Fish on top is much bigger, I'll say 25. The pic of the salmon from 1937, I'll say 30.

That top fish is definitely 24+ I still think 25.9

Oldgrandman
09-26-2008, 01:22 PM
Ryan, I'll give yours 31 +/- a pound being it was 1992 when salmon got bigger on average.

The Great One
09-26-2008, 03:12 PM
Well, considering the one I got off the boat earlier this year was 18-19 lb, this fish is easily in the 24-26 range...

And this is a U.P. fish, right :lol::lol::lol: I mean the challenge of West Bay had to start getting boring for ya eventually :p

TSS Caddis
09-26-2008, 03:18 PM
I'm going to go with a couple of the other guys and guess 16-18lbs.

IMO, a big fish for this year is 20lbs. Most we've boated this year are 14lbs or so.

19lb 5 oz

I'm guessing the first fish posted at 23#. The second one in the Polaroid at 28#. Both beautiful fish!!!!

One for reference....This was a 16lb fish that took second place in the Rogers City tournament in 2007...

HONESTLY guys, I never weighed it!! It is interesting though, to see how much the guesses vary!! Makes me wonder how many fish some of these guys handle? This year I didn't fish as much as usual, I probably landed 60 or 70 salmon this season. My GUESS was going to be about 24 lbs, but now I dunno!!! :dizzy: Not Jesus, maybe Uncle Jesus. My dad's youngest brother.

Seriously? It just goes to show you I usually guess em a little big :lol: .

I would rather under estimate than over estimate. I love fishing the tournaments and how you hear so many guys on the radio saying they have one in the box that should go 22lbs. Amazing....At the end of the day the biggest fished weighed will be 18lbs. :lol:

I don't care how much that one weighs though, Sam...Bigger than anything I boxed this year. That was my guess was 23-24lbs. But then again...If I tend to under estimate you've got yourself a 25-26lber!! ;)

Either way...GREAT FISH!!!!
