fish measuring thingy?!!

sorry about the subject header but i wasn't sure what they are called. i've noticed alot of people use them on this forum as i've seen them in their report photos to measure the size of their catch. are these available from all tackle shops and what price roughly are they likely to be? :)

Bout a Fiver Rab Mate... You'll get one from most decent tackle shops.

cheers drew, knew u'd get back to me. gotta get one, though i'll have to catch a few fish first. catches are few and far between at the mo!!

Yeah Mate, Join The Club... :lol:

Just to save you the embarassment of asking for a "fish measuring thingy" in the shop (:D) it's a "Match Measure", with the Ian Glds ones seemingly the most popular.

thank u teacher, now i wont make a tit of myself in a packed tackle shop!! :D

Belfast angling centre have them in stock ,i saw a couple last week when i was in talking to wee harry .

I got the metre long one in the foyle branch(when it was open) of Belfast angling centre so they should be in stock, if not I am sure they can order a fish measurey thingy

Ian Golds ones seem to be the most robust. Smashed a couple of others when standing on them or squeezing into box.

£4.50 at the show for the Ian Golds

thanks lads, ian gold's match measure it is then. £4.50 is a bargain. :D

MC bought his for measuring the size of the cups

you catch one item of clothing and they never let you forget it. It was a difficult fishing trip to explain to the wife :lol: :lol:

Bought one recently from Harry's in Bangor (Sakuma 45cm), around about £4.50, i'm sure Trap and Tackle also do them.
