Measuring the length of fish is a lot easier on the fish than weighing them. There are several ways this can be done without harming the fish.
Barbs & Backlashes
Spined
Summer fishing can be tough and some trips will only result in a fish or two. Be careful handling them, especially the ones that have spines.

Boat Ramps

Fisherman’s Prayer
Fun angler’s prayer to memorize and recite before you hit the water this weekend. I have every word memorized!
