Just trying to find out where I could purchase the stickers to stick on your boat that have the measuring ability. I would prefer the ones that list the fish lengths & bag limits on them. Need to be the QLD regs. (Like the ones Archie's give out)

Am looking to purchase a few (Around 20-30 to start with), so hoping to find somewhere that does them cheaper in bulk.


If anyone has any info, please email me on fishin_dan@ausfish.com.au


Cheers,
Dan

If you want to get that many, design your own and go to a sign writer (some do stickers too) or printer that does stickers, that way you can get exactly what you want.

That's an interesting idea Mick. I may look at that.

I know there are a few signwriters on here... Anyone want to talk to me about doing this?

Wouldn't Ausfish do them as part of their sticker business?

Or start doing them?

Just a thought - ask Steve

you are better off with a screenprinter than a signwriter, will have initial setup costs & printing will be relatively cheap. then you will always have the screen for any more you want to do...

Was thinking the same, but just hadn't got a chance to PM him. Will be doing it tonight though...

There was a time we gave them away here at work, then it was discovered they shrink after being exposed to the weather, therefore giving a false measurement of your catch.

Keep this in mind if contemplating keeping anything that's "Borderline" !

Dan,

Why do you need a measuring sticker? Do you catch fish that are big enough to measure? ;D ;D

I always thought most tackle shops got them done up as advertising. I am surprised that Ausfish haven't bought them out - but then again which state do you use as all have different sizes.

Nomes :)

:o Naomi! When have I ever been mean to you!!! he he he

There are a few tackle shops that do them for advertising, but that's not what I was looking at them for. I have been in contact with a few people about this, and it turns out they are pretty expensive to make... WAY past what I had in mind!

So instead I am thinking about my options, and considering something else entirely.

Thanks everyone for all your help.


Cheers,
Dan

Poor Queenslanders. NSW fisheries gives them away with Great colour ID pics on them. 1 for salt and 1 for fresh. I got my last set from the local calt ex servo in hastings point. I think wherever you can buy a hook will have them.....

But that s not much good to you is it.

cheers, Roo.

Dan,
One of the guys I work with just had 100 printed for 25 dollars each. They are accurate but at that price they are not give aways. plus that is for a straight ruler - actual length on one side and 1 cm bins on the other side.
Email me and I'll pass on the necessary details.
