The Hawg Trough has almost become the standard measuring device for fisherman across the country, and why not? Its concave design cradles the fish for simple measurement. Available in white and yellow the Hawg Trough measures fish in 1/4 inch increments from 8 inches to 30 inches in length. A word of advice: The Hawg Trough does not float but it luckily has holes on either end to attach a leash.

• Measures fish from 8 to 30 inches in 1/4 inch increments • Concave board with end lip makes measuring fish easy • Holes on either end allow for leash attachment • Available in yellow and white

Review:	Great product! I recommend adding some spray foam to make it float and sharpie the lines to make them stand out.

Review:	The ruler has been great so far. I had to use a sharpie to make the measurements more legible, but other than that it has been a good addition to the kayak. I would like to see a version that is a bit more sturdy as this one has some flex to it which makes me doubt its durability. I'd also like to see a floating model. I sprayed expansion foam in the back of this one to make it float. $20+ dollars for a flimsy piece of plastic that doesn't float seemed a bit steep, but there isn't much else on the market to compete, so I'm still giving this item 4 stars for functionality and form.

Review:	Great product. Easy to use. I recommend installing wooden dowels into the grooves on the back. it seems to make the board less brittle and it also floats
