Default Chef Pass area trout
All caught on Norton's Sand eels suspended in 27-35 feet of water. Anyone want to guess the size of the largest one?

There isn't a trout in the ice chest that weighs less than 2 pounds. And the ice chest is 94 qt.

Going by this http://www.igloo-store.com/detail/IGL+MARINE+ULTRA+94 It's 30.5" on the inside

I imported his pic, scaled the ice chest to that measurment. Then I pulled a measurment on the fish. Comes out to 21 13/16" I dont know how close that is. I'd imagine a + or - 1" or so.

Here's a screenshot.

And I take back the size of the cooler as well I just went checked the size of the cooler is actually a 120 not the 94. It is under 10#s and above 7.25.

More work to do!

So I recalcualted the drawing and used the (Length in inches X Girth in inches X Girth in inches) / 847 = weight in pounds and came up with 8.443181 pounds. how close am I?
