Weighing catfish by using length and girth

Flatheads vary more than most fish. Some have massive heads while others have more proportional heads. Some have mouths as wide as there heads and others have closed mouths that dont reach all the way across. And those bellies! A carp in the gut can change the weight significantly.

Channels fit the formulas better, but I still think tape type measurments made by taking the average of said lenth fish of a particular species are closer than the equation method above that is generic for many species of different body shapes. You just need to find one specifically for channels. Hans
