Crappie Counters

I'm making these counters now, any color combo, any count. If you're interested, please let me know.

Those look great Guy.

How do they work, I've seen them but never knew how they work'
and how much are they,..??

I make a smaller abacus style counter. White beads are ones, black beads are 5's.

Look fantastic Guy.

Thanks for donating some to CAT!

How do they work??

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.

Oh ok! Thanks!:)

How would one go about getting a couple?

Those look sharp! A small carribeaner to keep it hooked to you better might be nice! Anything not bolted down to me gets misplaced!!!

I would like a pink/white and a blue/black 25 and a black/brown 50..... how much are they and how do I get one?

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

Guy must be making those for sale. He only needs 5 or 6 beads on his.

is that to keep count of how many sodas he drinks while your catching them all.. ha

WOW,...tuff crowd.

PM sent Guy,..thanks.

I'd give anything to be a fly on the wall when Ernest and Guy are fishing together! I bet it would be a reality TV hit!

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

how long are they and what size are the beads I have big hands. But they look great keep up the good work. and what's the price of them.

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.

a friend of mine at work says that those would have been a big hit (no pun intended)in late 60's to early 70's...

Nice counters Guy!

Hickory Nut actually made Belinda one with 4 beads!!!

I thought that too....the clips would have been burned on the end.

Would take me all year too use all 25 beads!

I thought I should quote that in case I ever need a favor Todd.

I got two today, thanks Guy. Debbie loved 'em... and Sat and Sun may get to use them if the wind behaves...

Hello sir. Would you please quote me a price for these with the different count as well. Thanks for your time.

All of these wise guys and no one can ask the technological questions.

Crappie Guy ... where does the battery go?

He will have to ask Alexa and get back with you!!

You are definitely in trouble....

I asked her....she just made thunder sounds

are the roach clips stainless steel? and do the beads slide good if the rope gets wet.

The clip is stainless steel and the cord is 1/16" nylon parachute cord

ROACH CLIP???? .... you will be high and only need 3 beads, so what does it matter how they slide when wet? (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!

TTT

They work great won one in the raffle at the first CAT meeting. They also work as prayer beads while your fishing.

And if you're roach clip is wet, you're likely doing it wrong anyhow.

There is a lot of work in those. Very nice.
