Hey guys I have always used the good ol ruler but I have been looking at some boards lately and I think I might have to pick one up. My question is what is your favorite one? I am looking for something not very expensive but still good quality.

Thanks guys

Location: Southern Ontario, Detroit River and Lake StClair		I made my own measureing board. It hinges twice to fold down to 20" in length. It's by far the best one I've seen. I'd post a pic buts its in one of the lockers on my buddies boat right now. Some how he ended up with it. They aren't hard to make at all.

Location: Grand Rapids, MI		My favorite bump boards are my own! I've made a few for others, and some guys in our club just wanted the decal after they made their own board.

Location: SW MI		I make my own as well. I was able to find the same material that the well known boards use for free so it really only cost me about $5 to make.

Thanks guys for the info and ideas. Now seeing some of the homemade ones I may have to make my own. I was thinking of something like Fiedler's.

Muskybumper...For more info about these boards, contact Tony at 260-410-5474. Their attention to detail is awesome and the quality is definately top notch. The bump boards are made of 1/2 inch thick PVC and are super durible. Their unique hinge design is also a very cool feature on this board. The hinge lays flush with the rest of the board and is also made from PVC. They are available in right or left handed boards and also have a cut out handle as well.

Location: Appleton		The Sportsman in Appleton has Muskybumper Boards in stock for those looking. I picked one up the other day and it is awesome. Even had a fish on it the other day and it seemed to be quite comforable with it too

I think you forgot a few bucks in there, JT! You paid me $25 for the graphic!
