Bass Pro has the BnM Crappie Saver, can you order on-line or purchase from Memphis store. Sportsman Warehouse in Southaven will have them too. Neat little toy that measures, estimates weight and age class, and also let's you safely deflate the air bladder of a fish pulled from deep water. The idea came from Ronnie Capps, he told me a story about catching non keeper crappie on Percy Priest in 40ft of water. Because they were under 10" they were required by law to throw the fish back. Instead of killing a bunch of fish and letting them float on the surface to die because there air bladders had expanded. Ronnie popped the air bladders so the fish would live, and they did. The problem was holding this little slimy critters between his knees and fizzing the air bladder with a 2" #8 hypodermic needle. Thus the idea for a tool that would hold the fish while you pop them so they can live. Cool idea from the true Crappie Jedi Ronnie Capps.

I was checked at Sardis a couple of years ago and Mr. Green Jeans used a folding plastic ruler from BPS to check my fish.

B'n'M all the way. It is one of the best checkers I have every had due to the fact that it has more features than just checking the lenght. Well worth the money!

I have seen the new BnM but have not used one. I use a Golden Rule, the big one.

I can't believe ya'll are being so rude to DonDon by not including him in your conversation.

Here ya go DD.

A golden rule and the other items mentioned are measuring devices used to check the length of Crappie. You see on some lakes, there is a minimum length limit and the fish have to be a minimum length before they can be kept. Of course, this is all elementary for someone at your present level of skill, but I just didn't want you to be left out of the know.

You're welcome.

Hi there !!

I can only recommend my B'n'M Slabmaster Crappie Saver if you are wanting a "checker" that will measure all size crappie and much more. It can be bought from the B'n'M Poles website Grizzly Jig Co. etc.

Please check it out and let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Good Fishn!!
