No, don't measure every one. Look at them and pick out what appears to be a larger one to measure. This fish can even be removed from the hatchery / truck dip net. sometimes the driver will show you a larger one or the size range - just ask. You are the customer with the money, not them. Then just estimate what percent are that large? Are most 5.5"-6", a few 7"-8" and none larger OR are most 8"-9". I am just curious /nosey about what general sizes you are getting for $3.50ea. Very often sellers provide the smaller size in listed size range. There is quite a big difference between a 6" and a 9" bass. Nine inch bass will eat a noticably larger BG compared to a 5"-6" bass.
