OK, well nothing special but here is my first entry. Bluefish....I only had my 50 lb scale so the weight was not very accurate but you can see in the 2nd pic that the weight is over 6 lbs....round it down to 6 lbs because I can't be more accurate with this scale. state record is 24 lb 13 oz....so 24.2% Not much but better than anything else posted so far, right???

Good going whale. I got a 9 lb 3 oz. flathead on an ultralight yesterday w/ a 1/16 oz jighead and crappie jig. 15 minute fight. Unfortunately the NC state record is 78 lbs so this is only 12-ish percent. Had it been a channel cat I would have had 40 + percent.

I'm still trying though and will post my entry sooner or later.

No sorry, I thought we just needed to weigh them. I had to get my 8 year old to take the picture and then I took the closeup of the scale with my right hand while holding the fish in the left. Also, I was trying not to keep him out to long as it was catch and release. If it helps, I am 5' 10" so you can compare it to the length of my torso. :)

I see this now in the original post:
"To add credence to your fish's weight, include a picture next to a tape measure and specify length (to 1/8th inches rounded up. "


Don't worry, I plan to do better anyway....just figured I'd get things started.
