Inshore Fishing in The Rigolets / Lake Catherine in Southeast Louisiana

How much does he weigh?

Caught a big Red by the Rigolets last week that measured 35'. Didn't have a scale so couldn't weigh it before letting him go. Any idea how much he probably weighed by the length? Is there a rule of 'thumb'?

Last year i pulled up a 38' red and it was 22lbs. My buddy caught one that was 31' and it was 17lbs. I would have to say yours looks somewhere in 20+ range.
