I'm thinking of adding some markings to most of my rods at different lengths to mark out the legal length of common species of fish (like a tape measure).

Obviously I could just wrap some different coloured tape or something around at whatever lengths, but I was wondering if anyone else has marked their rods up like this (yes, i get bored easily :p) and has some funky/interesting designs instead of just plain bands to mark the lengths.

If you wanted to get really artistic ::) you could get little colour pictures of the specific fish glue them to your rod at the appropriate measurement. (Give them a good coating of epoxy to waterproof.)

Only downside is you'll have to re-do your rod every time the DPI change regs ???

Also if you have a Shimano "Backbone" rod you might get caught with undersized makos! ;D
