| Good fish, Flat Tater. A good rule of thumb in guessing a fish's weight is to guess a little on the heavy side then add about 8 to 10 pounds. If no one is with you then you could add up to 15 pounds. I learned this from a famous catter up in the G'ville area. He swears he can guess the weight of any fish to within 20 pounds of so. Say's it's just something that comes "NATURAL" to him.

| Flat Tater, I knew we could come up with a good guess on that fishes weight. 48 lbs 15 oz sounds about right to me. It appears as though I done pissed off the G'ville Catfish Guru by posting his famous formula for guessing a fishes weight but that's what he GETS for getting me kicked outta the Chat Room. (TWICE) But you know how the old fart gets when he get's in a "NATURAL" state of mind.

Mayersville sounds good to me, Im ready when Yall are!
I also built me some new rodholders last week,I got the idea from Coach and welded me some eyebolts to the sides of the pipe,,so they can hold my rods while runnin on the river, here are a few pics of them,, I will get some better pics and post them later,,,
