a friend and i caught a buck on the hoh that went 37" x 19".
he grew up in port angeles and has caught a lot of steelhead. he would eye them on the river for weight, then weigh them at home. he said that over the years he became very accurate. his scale has been checked and it is accurate.
he eyed the buck at 19lbs, the math says 17.2
he is sticking to his guns.
has anyone measured and weighed fish consistantly over the years? is the formula accurate?
