Quick take
A 22 inch hard anodized aluminum measuring board with laser-engraved markings and large numbers for quick, accurate fish length measurements.
The Frabill Benchmark is a 22-inch measuring board cut from gold-anodized aluminum, narrow at 2.5 inches wide. Large numerals and black markings make a fish's length easy to read right at the boat or bank. The aluminum does not corrode, so it suits both freshwater and inshore saltwater trips where you want a quick measure before release.
