How to Make a DIY Bumpboard / Fish Ruler

I really enjoy measuring & weighing fish that I catch. I used to just have a 24" sticker on the side of my boat. I decided it was time for an upgrade to something more convenient and easy to use. Most bump boards & fish rulers are pretty expensive so I built one myself. This is a super easy, and cheap DIY project to help you measure your fish.

You’re welcome, glad you enjoyed it!

your first shary line was actually at 38" and 37" would be the end of the tape.

I can definitely see how it looks that way! But check out the video at 12:13 with the measuring tape down, the Rapala fish ruler sticker ends at about 36 9/16", the PVC ends at 40", and the 3 sharpie lines are accurate. What I did wrong was, unfortunately I didn't lay the sticker down very precisely, so the entire Rapala sticker is off by about 1/8 - 1/4", you might be able to see how the 3 Foot mark on the measuring tape doesn't line up with the 36" mark of the Rapala sticker. After making this board, I started entering kayak tournaments and had to buy a Ketch board anyways lol! Thank you for watching and commenting!
