930, Never mind - found Nico's calc'er Posted by jsmith, Thu Mar-14-02 11:16 AM
Here's the link to Nico's fish weight/girth calculator:

Now, I see that I'm basing my measurements on estimates & extrapolations (not the least of which is my Berkley scale, which gave me my 11.5 reading, but has a margin of error of probably an ounce or two, and has never been officially calibrated or compared to a certified scale). Man, this gets messy! 'Estimates-times-estimates-times-estimates' can really get you crossed up in a hurry! But, all-in-all, I'm still able to get a number that's not TOO much of a stretch from reality! (I'll give you my 'final number' as soon as I zero in on it with a little more assuredness).
I'm only going through this exercise because this 'replica' guy's website says he needs these measurements to make a good replication, and I also saw that, on the BASSMaster magazine's 'Lunker' page qualifications, they ask for them, too! (I've been thinking about sending them my photo to be added in a future edition, having never had the opportunity before!).
Anyways, like I said, I'll post my final calc as soon as I get a better handle on it.
