When 4 out of 5 of them look like these you end up with a good average! The biggest set of these (second from the left) went 331 grams green.

If my math is correct 331 grams is about 12 oz. green. Would be interested is hearing the dry weight.
Wish I had some like that.

Just what the heck is a gram, anyway ?

Didn't we Americans reject the metric system as a country in 1970 ?

That whole metric mumbo jumbo reeks of globalism.

Lets leave the metric system for BOCO and the French Canadians !!!!

Pounds and ounces, gallons and quarts, please and thank you !!! laugh

BTW, Nice castors dude !!!! laugh

When you start buying them walleyes,I will start weighing them with the English system for ya.Until then they will be measured in grams and kilograms.

The biggest pair was nice and solid, couldn't even squeeze two drops of liquid out. Those types don't lose much so I figure it will be nice semi dry ready for sale at just under 300 grams. (Walleye, that's almost 2/3rds of a lb). smile

That's better,

Now you're speaking like an American.

Don't get corrupted by BOCO'S misguided system of measurement.

It's almost as bad as a Canadian's screwed up alternative spelling tendencies !!! laugh

We kicked the Brits rear end twice, and bought and paid for them twice, so they wouldn't have to speak German. They have a hard time speaking English, can't imagine them speaking German.

walleyed- You must not play around with any silver or gold because you would certainly appreciate how a gram equates to an ounce (ok, a troy ounce). A U.S. nickel weighs 5 grams, much easier even for my English measurement head to think of it that way then 2/10th of a standard ounce.

Those big ones wants me to take the lonely only 330 my kid gave me last Christmas as a gift to go around this early spring on a big castor quest, forget the actual beav plew. BTW, the kid was home on Army leave and tried that 330 out (its a ....Duke) and took a flat-tail in about 6 hours the first night. Haven't dug the castors out of that one yet.

Hey Buddy I have a scale for sale.
Person 2;Ya what is it good in weighing?
Grams and kilo's
Person 2; Busted
Why me ?
Pwrson 2; I'm a Police officer; only drug dealers deal with grams and kg's

Don't worry they look like they have been feeding on Popular and the boss man does not like those for his lure making.
