In my book, you have to weigh the fish on a accurate scale to say for sure. No rounding up. A fish that looks 10 pounds aint a doormat unless it's been weighted. A dedicated angler would require this. It's not a guesstimate.

10# on a certified scale, not a boga

The official rule of thumb on the boats Ive worked on:

Doormat = 10 pounds and up

Floor Mat = 12 pounds and up

Bath mat = 15 pounds and up

Laundromat = 32,000 pounds and up

If you catch the last one on any braid less than 30# you get a framed certificate from the IGFA

With the doormat issue resolved (yes its 10#) the next issue to keep this thread endless is what classifies (kudos Joe for correct spelling!) a FLUKASAURUS ( no such thing so cant be spelled wrong right?)

- Keeper and a great camera;)
