Overview

Built for anglers who need quick, readable measurements on the water, this measuring board combines anodized aluminum construction with stainless-steel hardware for use in freshwater or saltwater settings. The 28-inch scale uses contrasting 1/4-inch laser-etched markings, making it easy to check fish length at a glance, while the non-slip bump end helps reduce movement and noise during handling. A tether point and sliding ID card holder add practical convenience for tournament use or other situations where documentation matters. Its compact measuring range makes it a focused tool for catch verification, though it is limited to fish within the 28-inch board length.
