Weighing the Bass
When you guys are weighing the bass, do you use that bass calculator? How accurate is that calculator?

from what i know, its based on a scientific thing, which is a estimate.
of course, its not completely right because each bass is different, whether longer or shorter. it gives you an idea, though |

Different scales will give different weights. The calculator is a standard we use so we get the same weights in these online tournaments. For example if you weigh a fish with a 15" length and 12" girth on two different scales you might get different weights. With the calculator it is the same every time.

So if I'm going to post my bass in the weigh-in thread, it would be alright if I used the online calculator?
