To assess it's size...Definitely a big redtail. To assess it's size better though I'd need to feel it's keel to see how fat it is. I've trapped quite a few redtails over the years. I trapped one juvi over 1900 grams once but it was hog fat and living near a pheasant farm with lots of available food though none in it's crop. Typically though juvi's over 1700 grams in Wisconsin are very few and far between and perhaps 1 out of 100 from my experience.
