Tape Measure - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I also use a paddle mounted sticker. It does not get any easier to quickly measure a fish than to lay it across the paddle on your lap. You can also put your paddle in the water to check the fish without taking it out. I have worn through a few of them, but they are only a few bucks to replace. Remember to find the part of your paddle that floats up and lays on top naturally to determine where you put the sticker. The first one I applied would always roll to the bottom of the paddle on my lap. Also, clean your paddle with alcohol or similar before you apply the sticker. They are available at Bass Pro in a few types and Cabelas has them too.
