Jimmar that's a nice fish, but you need a better way to measure your fish.  I tape a yard stick to my canoe on one of the supports so it is easy and quick to measure a fish.

Jimmar,

You could tape one of these to the inside of your canoe and cover it with clear waterproof tape.
Since you like to catch NP, you'd need the 60" model. Wink

That would be too easy and probably too accurate to allow for the campfire story embellishments.

Good luck JChief! Sounds like fun. I'll be looking for LT this upcoming weekend with the family but will be south of the border in Carp and/or Knife. Tight lines!

Thanks Nanda. Weather forecast has changed a decent amount (very warm Friday, wet over the weekend, then cooling but seasonal the rest of the trip). Will be prepared for everything weather wise. Hope you find a few LT this weekend. Safe travels

It has been 2 years, excited is an understatement.

J
