28 lbs. is my biggest cat... those are some nice numbers for MI & MN

Here's one they're seeing around Milwaukee December 5th-10th... he looks pretty decent

That's a big cat! He will break the 40 pound mark.

I have nothing clever to put here.

39 is the biggest I have caught here in Nebraska, i've caught probably a dozen others over the years that weighed 29-35 pounds.

They have the big Cat contest in Texas where you have to shoot 5 Coyotes before you can enter a cat. I would like to see what the average cat has weighed in the last 10 yrs or how ever long it has been going.

One of those 40 plus lb could probably take down a 200# whitetail no problem.

That's a nice cat too. I doubt it will break 40 pounds though.

Some of yall's cats get huge. Up until this season 27 was my biggest. I have gotten a 29.8 then a 34.6 this season and they looked huge compared to most I catch.

id like to see a picture of a 50 pounder hanging from a scale.
