  Yea uh with those measurements the formula says it comes in at 117. Idk what the Nebraska record is but pretty sure that would slaughter it

  Yea lol I'm gonna have to pony up and buy a larger scale. With the length and girth it had a pretty good chance at taking the state record here in nebraska!

  Learned that the hard way also! Had to go buy a scale that went past 100 pounds when I got into catfishing!
