Ive never seen one Mr Jim but ive yet to see a 3 lber that wasnt right at 17.

never in a million years will that crappie weigh more than 3# I still say 2.7
5 pounds must be a typo

Any 4 that I have ever caught has been 18in plus and length will equal circumference.

Its not a typo. Its the AR state record caught last year although I seriously question the scales or what was in the belly of the fish.

might as well have claimed it weighed 6 pounds and make it a world's record. The agfc employee who weighed it must need glasses.

Perhaps the picture does not represent the fish at the time it was weighed. It's my understanding that the longer a fish is out of water the more weight it lose.
