Home made bump board


landry

Recommended Posts

My friend gave me some free lexan so I made up a bump board. Can't wait to slime it up:) total cost was $15.

The lexan was so thin I had to rivet the hinges on. No matter how I attached them there was gonna be some metal against the fish so I added plastic straps to cover it up at the joint.

Looks good. Nice and wide too to eliminate slim on the carpet. I use the slim rapala one and musky slime always laces the boat carpet after. Hopefully you land a few in the red!

Ah but there's nothing like that musky smell in your carpet stinking up the garage to say " I am a success"

Looks like it should work well landry, nice job.

 

Here's another idea and what I use the odd time I want to measure a musky. Just a simple wooden dowel with a cross piece on the end and marked up to 55".

 

Once the fish is in the water and I'm holding her tail I just hook the end over her snout and check the number at the end of her tail.

 

If she's bigger than 55" I'll have to use my imagination :lol:
