Hard to estimate weight from that picture for me, but I would guess it around the low 20's range. Did you happen to weigh it?

^ Probably what about 10 lbs? Great fish! Here is something I made for my background on my computer. These are my three biggest Catfish so far in my 3 month Catfishing career.

Darn respectable fish there, especially for your first three months.

I am so hooked on every aspect of it. I love sitting out on the river at night when it is so incredibly peaceful. It's my way of relieving stress and getting things off my mind. And then the rush of a Flathead taking the bait is just incredible.
Can't wait to be in the King of Cats next season just for fun and hopefully catch some 40+ Lb. fish.

Wow that is an awesome fish! Nice work getting it in on 6lb test. Other people could probably give you a better idea of what it weighs, but looking back at one of Hansons earlier in the year was 44x30 and it was 47lb so thats about the same length and girth.

Nice fish! Using a standerd formula I got 51.6. It is usualy close, but on the high side. Non the less, that is a great fish. See Hanson, you dont need 80#pp. FishDale, was it a workout.
