The Traditional Fisherman's Forum

Young Wallyboy threw a section of bamboo at me on Saturday....as is his want. He is a very naughty boy.

However, being a handy Mole the decision was made to turn said bit of Bamboo into a Gudgeon Measure...and it was so!





What do think?

As ever,......

A poor copy of my original...
2/10 for originality...

I'll stick to the as yet very underused fox measuring device. It's light, unobtrusive and, when in the pocket, cannot cause any confusion

When I invaded this part of the world and found PDAS and the Wally, I realised I had need of a gudgeon gauge, so made one from a few bits lying around.
Here it is.



And in use with a well built little fella a few weeks ago

Very nice Moley, I made one a few years ago but alas, not needed it for the last 3 outings.

We'll have to help you to the other side of the bridge next time where a few more reside

Well it works .......ha, ha ,ha.



Monocoque design to give lightness and strength.

This Mole is a genius.

As ever,....

This is Wally Roy's beautifully crafted version, put to good use for my prize specimen.

We're all lucky Aitch didn't patent the idea



Mine's getting a bit manky so I think a new one is in order

As usual, matchmen needed something special, they even wanted the LAA approval on it….
