Ace Callaway claims 46lbers exist Originally Posted by fishermann222 we started weighing everything this year, biggest lynx 31 so far maybe one of the biggest we have caught. Ace Callaway claims 46lbers exist I believe the weight in question by A.C. was 64 lbs. my thought was, oooh, that’s a big cat. Smiley face inserted here.

I think the weight depends a lot on what might be in their stomach especially for lynx. Longest I measured was 46" that went to the auction. However the biggest Lynx I caught went straight to the taxidermist and I didn't get any weight or length, although my guess is he was pushing 36-38 Lbs.
