What would you do if you caught your personal best fish, but didn't have a measuring board or tape to measure it?
That would be so frustrating!
As anglers, we always want to know exactly how big a fish is.
A ballpark estimate just doesn't cut it.
Plus, for the rest of your life, you might be wondering how big that fish actually was.
Nobody wants that, so the two tips in this video will help you get the exact measurement, even if you don't have something to measure your fish with.
All you need is one of two tools, both of which you're guaranteed to have on you if you go fishing.
Check out the two tips in this video.

I paint slot marks on my rods and color code them for various species. Since slot sizes vary by region I use the longest measurement statewide for the minimum and the shortest measurement statewide for the maximum. Keeps me out of trouble when I keep the catch no matter where I am if the regulations aren’t what I think they are.
What I always do is measure the distance from the butt end of the rod to the reel. I can usually make pretty accurate estimations from there.
All great tips 👍
I have wrapped and epoxied hash marks on my rods for common sizes (10, 12, 15, 18, 27 inches) from the handle. I also have one of those tailor tapes stapled to my tackle bag.
Simple tips but EFFECTIVE!💯👍
Great tip
I use a sharpie and mark one inch increments from the the tip of the rod.
That helps so much nice hacks.
Every time I get a new rod I use a like colored perm marker or pint pen and mark my rod every 3-6” that way I’ll always be able to get really close measurements with out having to “call it” lol 😂
Lol I could have watched this yesterday, I caught my first snook and had no way to measure it. I believe it was 13-14 inches.
Dollar bill is six inches for a semi accurate ballpark measurement.
Always love the tips. You’ve have definitely upped my game bro. I’d love to see a KZread tourney with you, Justin Mendez, Lawson, 321BigFish, Jupiter George...ect. You guys are the new generation of fishing.
I know the width of my open hand thumb to pinky.
Another option, get a skinny vinyl tape like the one you carry and attach to the back or side of your rod. You will almost never forget it
Great tips! I need to get a tape or make some marks on my Kayak 👌👌😊

Just attach a vinyl tape to the side
Measure your foot and go by that
