[QUOTE="Up Y'oars, post: 112371, member: 764"] I've been using these as a fish counter for over 10yrs. In the military we call 'em Ranger Beads[ATTACH=CONFIG]6301._xfImport[/ATTACH] There is nine on the lower-half, and five on the upper-half. [U]Military[/U] - each lower bead counts for 100 paces (100 meters)... one bead gets pulled down. Each 100 paces another bead comes down. When you reach 10 (1,000m) you lift the nine beads up and slide one from the top-half down to its knot. This helps you keep a pace count up to 6,000 meters, or just about four miles distance. [U]Fishing[/U] - Two guys in the boat? Use lower-half of beads and when the beads are all down and you catch one more, you're done. Three guys in the boat? One guy gets his own set of beads at the top. Tracks 15 fish that way. Four guys in the boat?? Oh, hell no! I don't allow four humans in my boat at the same damn time. PRICE COMPARISON: Ranger Beads = $5.00 Exceeding Limit = $100.00 Unless, you show the game warden your ranger beads and point toward Queen Hickory that you did not 'intend' to withdraw extra fish from the water. You were simply mis-communicating with your fishing partners and it'd be easy to proof otherwise in a court of law. [/QUOTE]
