That way there is no question that the bug is legal.

If you notice the warden will use their own gauge to measure, and not yours.

Even though you bought the gauge pre-made, you are responsible for its accuracy.

Seems like a good warden.

Did you get his name.

No name. All in all, a very respectful warden. I'm gonna look into a better guage and maybe even file it open. I guess be careful bring your pen and fill out your card (date, location and gear code) before you start hooping.

Sound like the warden that I know. He was at Catalina, but he said he moved to north SD.

Good idea to fill the card at home.

There are lots of wrong information out there. One angler was quoting a warden (perhaps mistakenly) that every time you catch a bug, you got a put a line in the last box.

I had him read the line #6 on the lobster card, where it says "when you finish fishing for the day, then mark the card".


The thicker gauge as shown by Jim sits higher in the eye "V" so it insures a legal catch if it fits the body.
