Does KW have any restrictions on the type of measuring device we use to measure fish?

What are the particulars on the photo with measuring device? Do you need the entire fish and measuring device in the single Photo? Kinda hard to get a Halibut with tape in a single photo while seated in the yak.

All fish 24" and under need to be photographed while being measured. I use a device that I bought at WalMart for $9.99. Anything above that they ask to take a picture with something to gauge the size by. I believe.

Not that I'm aware of but make it easy on them by using a store bought measuring stick. I bought mine at WalMart for $ 9.99.

This is the board that I made up. I cut the board in half and put stainless steal hinges on it that way I can fold it up and put it in my hatch. I don't like that green pull out board myself it is to hard to read the numbers on the board in the pic sometimes. And yes any measuring device works as long as it is flat and you can read the numbers on it.

Mike I bought one of those things but it was super flimsy and I didn't notice it till I got home but one of the edges was busted off. I'm gonna make a board like Brandon posted that folds up. I'll show you when it's done.

Yeah, I read the rules. I am more interested in the specifics of what has been accepted in the past for photos.
