To put length, weight, and age into some sort of meaningful context, take a look at the chart below. I'm not sure who originally created this chart but it is fairly accurate. Most of the stripers I have caught have been a bit closer to the minimum weight rather than the average weight shown on the chart for a given length. The weight formula below the chart has proven to be very accurate and allows me to leave my scale at home and only pack my plastic coated cloth tape measure since I can use it for both length and weight.
