We named him "Buck Nasty' because of all the scars & bites he had on him.
He came in at 39 1/3" long with a 25 1/2" girth!
We didn't have a scale but it didn't matter to us what he weighed, he was massive!

((Girth x Girth) x Length) / 800 = weight in pounds i've used it quite a bit,.. its very accurate

No that is a native out of water.
Its the QIN Rez. Whitey rules do not apply...

Thanks for the formula BIGINNER! I've looked up a few different ones (mostly in cm) & wondered how accurate they are. I'll have to try this one out when I get into the Silvers.

looks like it's about 32 lbs. anyone else ever calculate the fish's weight using this formula:
((Girth x Girth) x Length) / 800 = weight in pounds i've used it quite a bit,.. its very accurate
Not even close to 32 lbs! Generally steelhead over 20 pounds are at least 40". That thing is seriously thick though!

I ran the measurements on piscatorial pursuits weight calculator and it came out to about 32 also... granted almost any 20+ pounder is 40+ inches that thing is built like a king and girth adds up faster than length it seems. Either way that fish is a pig
Nice fish! It is built like a king girth-wise. The tail is not as squared off as I'm used to on a Steelhead either. Look at the belly on that guy. He's been rubbing the bottom quite a bit...
Definitely a thick one...

The rules states legal native steelhead can be retained on most river systems over there,,,,EVEN WHITIES :chuckle:
