Carp and BFT iron on - FisherMOM - 04-23-2004 [] I am bummed.....I forgot about the ruler! grrrrrrr.. here is a common carp that I caught today for the ultimate 16 species contest. But I had no ruler. I gotta get a big one I only have a tiny, unreadable one! I was also catching carp on my ultralight! THAT was fun!

It will always be there when needed[/#008080]. I don't know whether or not if they are available beyond 48".[][/font][/size][/#008080] [signature] Re: [Dryrod] Carp and BFT iron on - FisherMOM - 04-23-2004 I have one of those retractable ones, and it's all rusted from use. I guess I should clip it back on though. I am also afraid of it reflecting into the water..it's silver.

That's what I carry for fishing. Available for about .50 at any fabric or craft shop. Cheap, washable, stuffable, visible. I just roll it up and put it in any pocket or pouch. Well, that's how I start. It usually ends up just stuffed into a pocket I started with a green one, but it was a little hard to see in pictures, then I got a yellow 36". Works great! Oh, yeah I edited to add that since it is flexible, so it lays the length of the fish without kinks. Much more accurate measuring. Hope it helps.
