Fishing Rule #1 is a back-lighted fish measurement ruler that surface mounts to any fishing boat. The unit is powered by the boats own 12v system. Any ruler can be used during the day, with the Fishing Rule #1, you can now have your ruler light up for those early mornings, late evenings, or all nighters.

The Fishing Rule #1 also helps in size minimums or slot measurements. The Fishing Rule #1 comes with semi-transparent colored overlay strips, you cut to length, to highlight these measurements. The overlays are reusable though inexpensive enough to be disposable. You can write on them with a permanent marker to indicate your favorite lake, for which the length was created. Highlight 0"- 15" for a 15" minimum size limit or highlight 15"-18" if this is a particular lake's slot for a specific species. With using the highlighted areas, a fish can easily be determined whether it is a "keeper" or not and be returned to the water quicker to fight another day.
