Shorepound to 2-4 ft made launching a little tough - had to wait nearly 10 minutes before I got a good lull and then made it out dry. Had a personal best - a 22 inch Calico. Im guessing 5 - 6 lbs? Does that sound about right??? Found this table but they only go to 18 inches. The bass was released unharmed cause I want to catch him again!
