Then I have one that measured 25.5 inch and on an uncertified scale weighed 8.5 pounds. Are walleye like crappie.....in the fact that a one or two inches makes a big difference in weight? The 21 inch walleye looked healthy to me but is it common for a walleye measuring only a few inches more to be more than double the weight? Just like in the bluegill world there is a big difference in a 9 inch fish vs a 10 inch fish.

Alpha, she went 30 by 19.5 around.
That's a good question. Mostly I'd say yes, it's usually like crappie. That being said, it can very from fish to fish. This one is unusually girthy and one I posted from last week was 24 inches and very skinny for this time of year.
