I saw this on the WaterWolf facebook page..

I think someone in Denmark has been reading our forum and made a prototype.  If you're interested, they're considering kickstarter...

Ha!  I can't believe (a) that somebody else came up with the same silly idea, and (b) that they actually developed it and are trying to market it!  I came up with the idea when I saw the picture which is in my initial posting on this thread.  I had never seen or heard of any such product.  But my ideas for the product were almost exactly like those shown in the picture.  The only difference was that I was thinking that it might be desirable to make more than one size of "tiny hands" fish holders, for different sizes of fish.  I hope those guys make a lot of money off the product.

I think adding some cuffs that match your shirt/coat would really help the illusion.   A wedding ring option would be nice as well.

European perch Perca fluviatilis get much larger than our yellow perch Perca flavescens.  The record for European perch is 8 lbs+ while the record yellow perch is 4lb+.

On Facebook I posted a description of my "Tiny Hands" fish holder idea, with pictures of the similar "Fish Fingers" device which those guys from Denmark have developed, and my sister replied, "Hmmm...Are there other possible uses for these things for taking pictures of something you might want to appear larger?"

Since the dudes from Denmark have beat me to the market, it looks like I'm going to die poor.
