First Tench

[Steve Walker]

I'm guessing a fair bit more for a meaty tench, maybe 3lb? Dunno

 

I'd have guessed at 3. Hard to tell from a photo with tench, some can be a lot broader over the shoulders than others. This is a 6:

Zed a cheaper alternative to pricey fish scales, is a battery operated digital bathroom scale. The slim ones will fit nicely into a stink net bag. Merely stand on the scales with your capture, note the combined weight, stand off and return the fish to the water, weigh yourself, and the difference is the weight of the fish!! A quick method is to remember your own weight and then the additional weight is that of the fish.

 

Meant to add ask Jeepster, he swears by this method.
