walleye question
We got a big walleye on Monday after bleeding it and being in the cooler for 4 hours it weighed in at 12.5 pounds. How much weight do you think it weighed when it was landed. We fished Ashtabula again on Monday 4 fish o's 18 big ones by 2 pm.

I can't tell you how much it weighed alive but I will say congrats on a nice fish!

were thinking it might have lost about 1/2 a pound, I figured someone would know, we had a scale on the boat but were to busy catching fish to take time to weigh it. Next time out were going to weigh a big one then bleed it and weight it when we get home.

im just guessing here but I would guess it lost somewhere between 1 lb and 1 1/2 lb. a big fish like that will usually lose somewhere around 10% of its live weight over a few hours. what was the length of the fish??
it may not have been a record fish but it was a fish of a lifetime. congrats to the angler who caught it.

it wasn't close to the record my friend always wanted a teener 13 plus. After bleeding it and being in the cooler for 5 hours it weighed 12.5 pounds. It was 31.75 long and a 21 inch gerth. I told Larry it was in the 13 pound range.
