0:30
Little strip of duct tape I know from from right here to the top of the cork
0:36
That's 10 inches because I like fishing for crappie And most of the lakes around me have a 10 inch rule for keepers
0:43
Now it's a it's a 1 inch strip. I measured 1 inch and Then cut it so I know that the top is 11 inches and that's a better fish, right
0:52
That's a better fish to keep than a 10 inch crappie, and then you can kind of eyeball
0:57
