You pull a bead down for every fish you keep.If you'll count there are 25 beads with a contrasting bead every 5th bead.

Ken Gaby -- thanks JIM SR -- please send me a TFF PM telling me what count you'd want and I will respond Tommy -- thanks Paths -- please send me a TFF PM telling me what count you'd want and I will respond Slewfoot -- I know just how bad you are with anything that you have to keep up with. So in your case I'd make them with something that you could NOT lose ACAMS -- please send me a TFF PM telling me what count you'd want and I will respond

COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !

I pay so very little attention to him (even when he's on the same boat) that I sometimes (most times) don't even know he's there Here's a little different one that I just finished

Awesome work, Sir. I make a little less fancy/flashy one. I like to give them to the kids when I take them on my boat. It gives them a sense of responsibility during the trip plus it gives them an opportunity to keep count against other siblings that may be on the boat. They get to take them home after the trip. I also keep an official boat count just in case one sibling is pulling a bead or two extra just to beat brother or sister.
Columbus took a chance and he made it.

(sorry, could not help my self) I got mine today and they are super ..... my wife loves hers and haven't been able to put hers in the boat yet, guess when we get to the lake I will still have to count fish manually because hers will be clamped on something at home!
