polarsusd81 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 You guys know the easy way to get the girth of a fish? You all have the equipment right in the boat. Would only take a few seconds to do if you were really concerned about it.Have the partner just grab the line above the leader, and pull around the belly, not tight or anything, but just a quick wrap, mark the spot with the second hand. Hold that up to your tape or stick, and there you have it. Super simple and very fast if you want it that bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
