Looks nice and sunny.

 

I will guess at 2-06 but those long Perch are so hard to work out but I get the feeling it may have been rather thick. I would not be surprised if it was more.

 

I am all ready starting to think it might be more.

The fat belly suggests to me that it's a 'three' so I'll go for 3lb 2oz.

 

 

I'm going 3lb 6oz.

 

It appears much bigger than the 2lb perch I caught last week.

 

Congratulations!

Anderoo photos are so hard to judge Perch by as you well know and stop winding up the Northern lads now go sit on the naughty step ,Seriously though good Stripey looks long and i would go just under Rustys at 2lb 14oz .

Ps dontcha know they don`t feed in bright sunshine :rolleyes: Steve

We are not putting it back it is a lump now put that curry down and go and get the scales

have I told you abouit the cruise control on my Volvo ,,,,,,,bla bla bla Barder rod has it come yet?? and don`t even start me on Chris Lythe :bleh::icecream:

I'm going for 2lb 12oz on this one.

 

It would have helped if you'd held it side on to the camera, instead of at an angle though, Andrew. Is that the new 'specimen' pose? :rolleyes:

 

I'm saying that weight even though it looks a bit bigger, because the fish will have expanded in the hot temps you have down there.

Angling is more than just catching fish, if it wasn't it would just be called 'catching'......... John

Keep guessing - none right so far...

 

 

As I said it's a really alkward pic to judge Anderoo. Looking at it's head though i think it may be a lot bigger than were all thinking, maybe over 3 1/2 lb or high three ?
