For those of you that are trying to figure out how much that big flathead you’ve caught weighs this Flathead Catfish Weight Conversion chart is pretty accurate.
Mark this as a Favorite post or print out the actual Weight Conversion Chart and keep it in the boat. I use it all the time – get a quick length and girth measurement and get the fish back in the water. It keeps me from beating up a fish trying to hang him on a scale. I’ve got an accurate digital scale but I only use it on the really big fish.
This is a handy reference for gauging a flathead’s weight. Special thanks to dtro for making this initial post and the chart. Thanks, Darren.
