    Guess the weight of these fish.

    One is 61″ Croix fish
    One is 56″ Rainy Fish

    They both weight exactly the same…How much do they weigh?

    I might be a tad high as I didn’t account for the walleye jigs stuck in their mouths. ;)

    Haha. There was a few extra lines hanging from the Rainy fish…Not walleye lines, but certainly someone who came unprepared for a….X pound fish )

    Lol.

    This boys and girls, is a lesson in photo trickery.

    A few years ago my dad said to me “You gotta hold them fish to the camera; you make them all look tiny”…So i started holding them way out to the camera and magically the fish got much bigger ) Dad also started believing the measurements i was attaching with the pictue lol.

    These are both 46# fish.

    I have a feeling that if i only showed the Rainy fish (night picture) your estimations would have been much much smaller.
    Both were a blast to catch. Kyle really enjoyed getting worked by his PB sturgeon saturday at 1am. I think to quote him “Now i understand what it’s like to catch a big one” He got worked. Immediately stuck it in the anchor rope, i go to free it from the anchor and it goes under the boat and grabs my line and another guys line…THat started the Rainy Sturgeon CLuster F! lol. Fun times.

    Thanks for playing )

    That’s cheating. I hardly looked at the pictures!

    I just went by your given weigh.

    Drat’s, never trust a fisherman.
