Here is a nice Flathead I caught in a reservoir in Ohio.....

Roboto, did you weigh that one? What is the unit on your port windshield? Thanks.

I weighed it on a 30 pound max limit scale and it was pegged at 30. So at least 30, but I would guess not much more. That reservoir gave up a 55 pounder the next year. Got mine on a shad rap casting in a shallow weed bed for walleye. The 55 was taken on a bluegill during a catfish tourney. After that I bought a 50 pound scale, which is the one in the photo of the 17 posted earlier.

The unit on my windshield is a battery powered LED light.
