Location: Nowheresville, MN		Posting these for WoundedCarrot since he never posts.

Fish swam away before he could get a girth and he wants a replica. Any guesses? I'm sayin somewhere in the 23" range. He thinks its at least 24" and was bigger around than his thigh with his rain pants on.

50.5

Nice! at least 23" but most likely more. My leg is 24" with no rain pants on.

Location: Menasha, WI		I honestly have no idea what the girth on this fish would be as this was my first 50" and have only seen one other fish that big in person. I would love to get a replica made and my 24" guess was only a guess and nothing more so take your best shot at it and let me know thanx. WC

I'd say 24 is a good guesstimate.
Her back is broad, and I'm sure if you looked at her from the top when she was in the water that you could see the white of her belly outside of her back. Bulked up for fall. Full of ciscoes and eggs.
Beautiful fish. Congratulations.

Location: Musky Tackle Online, MN		It's really hard to tell girth from a picture most of the time. But my guess is 22" to 23" on the girth. tfootstalker, check your email for a picture of a 50.5" with known girth for a comparison. Wounded Carrot, congrats on the fish!

Location: Home of the 2016 World Series Champion Cubs		Its YOUR release and your replica. You got the best view of anyone. Pictures often dont do the fish justice. If you say 24" I'd have no problem believing that. Congrats on an beautiful fish.

Awesome fish dude...you call it whatever you feel it is...I won't be paying for it, I didn't hold, and I didn't have the opportunity to measure it!

CONGRATS!!!!

Location: Highland, IN		Awsome fish , congrats!
Did you get a weight? If so then you can keep guessing the girth on the weight calculator till you get the weight right.
I just did that for my buddies ski he got on sunday, his PB at 45 1/2 "
