Can someone post a fish wieght calculator according to length and girth measurments for Walleyes. I usually don’t wiegh the big fish that I release, but I do measure them. I just recently caught a walleye that was 29inches long and 16 1/2 inches around. I’m kind of curious as to what she wieghed.

i have always wondered how much weight should be added to those conversion charts this time of year when them big girls look 9 months pregnant – at least a pound i would think.

P-4 Walleyes are off/over those type of charts… I had a 29 7/8″ spawner scale at 11lbs 14oz last April.
yup! what he said
March 29, 2010 at 11:53 pm #858653I have to think it would go close to 12 lbs. I caught a 29 incher in Pool 4 last year that weighed 12lbs even . I pulled a late fall 28.5 out of Pool 14 that went 12.1 lbs. The big girls I’ve caught out of pool 14 this year are carrying a lot of weight I think it would be real close to 12. I hope I find her tomorrow I’m taking a personnel day to fish pool 14. Congrat’s on you trophy.
March 30, 2010 at 1:49 am #858701I agree that the weights on the river are very hard to calculate. I have been involved in 2 personal bests down there. Myself with a 28.5″ that went 10.50# and a 27.5″ that went 11.50#. It has been some time, need to get into another
