This was a fish caught monday...Not a huge fish, but we seemed to have fun with the last guess the weight post that we had. It was sad in the last post that we never knew the real answer. So, in this picture, I do know the answer and will post it in one week... I have measurements and weight as per a normark digital scale...

***Note, I tried to take the picture in such a way so that it may be tough to guess, my guess is someone will get it right but many will guess on the small side.

Cheek-I wish it from the number of bass.. However, I hate to even admit this here.. I was cooking breakfast the other day and chopping onions... with a fillet knife.. and kinda somewhat chopped the end of my thumb off.. lucky not deep enough for stitches. LOL grin.gif man am I a dork.

I will say this.. someone already nailed it exactly on!... bravo.. its up to the rest of you to try and decide who it was?

Based on the fact that you are holding it nearly vertically along your arm, I measured my arm from above my wrist to elbow took that number and adjusted it a little because it appears that this fish is longer than your forearm.

Drum roll........

Bucketmouth has the right answer.

well, I can see this isn't going to go a whole week...

Bucketmouth did have the correct weight.. 4.1 lbs.. however the fish was a bit longer at 18 3/4"

Nice work bucket,

BLB, nice measure job, I have monkey arms with a 78+ in wingspan.

Thanks to all who played... again, not a huge fish.. but a fun one all the same. I caught it on a jigworm in about 11 feet or water.

Ouch RR.. that will leave a mark!.. LOL.. Actually it was a pretty darn good day on the water.. I lost count of the fish over 3 lbs.. this was the best pict.. Or at least the one I thought would hide the actual weight of the fish.

Hey even a blind bat catches a rat every now and then.. I too can catch 4lb bass every so often.. LMAO! smile.gifgrin.gifooo.giflaugh.gif

I'm going to take a stab in the dark on this one. The smaller scales tell me right away its a Florida strain bass...dead give away. Judging from your height, hand size, and the distance it is being held away from your body....I'd say its somewhere around......10 pounds......14 ounces.....am I close? grin.gif

      Problems with Yetti

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
