Quick take
Portable aluminum gauge for measuring crab and lobster carapace width to check legal size limits.
This aluminum gauge has a 3 1/4 inch slot and a 5 inch slot for sizing lobsters and crabs, measured from the eye socket to the end of the body shell. At 5.75 by 3 inches and 0.2 inches thick, it slips into a tackle box or pocket for use on the water. Its aluminum body suits saltwater trips for crabbing and lobstering along the East and West Coasts and the Gulf.
