Hello folks!

Friendly warning! If your crab caliper is made in China - you DO want to calibrate it, and cut off (literally) all sizes but 6 1/4in. Otherwise you may end up with a very difficult conversation with a WDFW officer explaining him why you posses undersized crabs, how you measured your crabs, and answering a ton of other questions.

On the regular, yellow plastic caliper you can get from any local store - 6 1/4 width is ANOTHER, NEXT mark on the caliper, NOT the one marked as 6 1/4!!!!!

You would think the stores selling these crappy, "Crab sizing tools" would be happy to exchange them for an accurate tool....maybe one made in the USA   ;D
