Curse of the brag mat!

[mr.e.p.d]

I recently decided to purchase one of these mats to measure my catch in stead of the old fold out wooden ruler, thinking I was doing the right thing.

Since its gone in fishing bag I've only caught undersized fish, and think I have jinxed myself. Think I might go back to the old trusty fold out ruler and see if I go back to landing keepers?

Well if you bought the Brag Mat to "Brag" about your catches then the fishing gods were always going to shut you down.

Having a Brag Mat will put an end to your stories where you go

"I caught a fish and it was Thiiiiiiisssssss big"

The second time you tell the story it will go

"I caught a fish and it was Thhhhhiiiiiiissssssssss big"

A Brag Mat puts correct facts into a story.

"I caught a fish and it was 37cm big"

Doesn't sound as good a story as the originals

So toss out that cursed Brag Mat (just start calling it a Mat) and the Gods of Fishing will forgive you for trying to take the Bragging out of Fishing

Have you considered perhaps the ruler might have been faulty and your catching the same

Sized fish as always?
