I just sent 'Jeff' an e-mail, inquiring about the possibility of getting a replica on my recent 11.5'er. I also explained in my e-mail how I got the link to his site, so keep an eye out; he might just join us here on this Forum. Pretty good place for him to pick up some business, I'd say! (I also referred him to Fish Chris's 'trophybassonly.com' site).

I'm hoping it might be possible for Jeff to 'guesstimate' what the length & girth measurements are for my 11.5-lb'er, since I didn't get those measurements on my fish before I released her. It was tough enough just to get a PHOTO of the darn thing in time to release her alive! She was out of the water considerably longer than I would've liked, although she swam away looking healthy enough from the trauma. (I had swum her around a couple of times as I was getting my camera set up, so I think that helped).

Anyways, I guess I could make some calculations on the LENGTH, making an extrapolation based on the measurement of my HAND that's holding the fish. However, that GIRTH measurement would be a problem. I guess I could 'backtrack' to that, using one Nico's or Chris Youlden's formulas.

Anybody got that formula handy????
