Majority of my fish aren't worthy of getting weighed. Length is good by me, at least until the state changes regs to pounds.... That said, I see more racers, but have enough to know a 30#, and be pretty good to guessimate if a fish is a forty. Just don't have enough slobs compared to the racers the past few years. Would rather keep a 30 inch fish for the table anyway.

I usually carry a scale (chatillion 50 calibrated). It weighs a lot and I rarely use it, but I can't see killing a fish (nevermind carrying it out) just to weigh it, and I don't catch enough fish over 30lbs to accurately judge their weight at night.

Damm ... missed that .. was that made "man law" ? nightfighter makes a good point.. State regs are inches .. Capesams makes a good point for pounds and inches so we have a better idea whats going on (starving) with the fish . Competing for food with seals..
