So that's the theory that a fish ought to look larger when pictured with a smaller person well and truly blown out of the water! As you can see, this one weighed in at 46lbs; exactly the same weight as the previous one I posted. The two pictures are quite similar in composition, but this fisherman was a good deal taller than the previous one. And whereas the average of all guesses for the previous one was 4.6lbs (10%) on the low side, the average for this one came in at 50.3lbs, which is 4.3lbs (9.3%) over the actual weight. Congratulations to
1255Durham, who sneaked in under the wire with the final guess posted, but got it spot on.
Without checking back, I think this is the first fish I've put up which has had an average of all guesses over 50lbs.
