    BK do you have any idea how much a 47″ catfish weights? I didn’t have a scale big enough. This one was caught Sunday on a paddle tail.

    Not a great photo for judging weight.

    How much do you want it to weigh?

    Any good walleye guy would know that it’s at least 75#

    50.24. And 52.27

    Length X Length X girth divided by 1275. Really really accurate on Big Fish.

    I’ll give 32 pounds max on the fish in the picture.

    Since it was caught while walleye fishing, that automatically adds 25#.

    So 50-55#.
