My only guess is that Golf balls are a uniform size all over the world therefore it gives a good indication of the size on the fish.

However I could be wrong

I agree with Peanuts, its probably to show the size of the fish. smile.gif

yes, golfballs are used to see how big a goldfish is, is works even better with a pearlscale as their belly is so round
Marsha
Yes I agree with others too. Sometimes we see pic;s of fish with coins placed next to them, which could be for the same reason.

Size reference is EXACTLY why it is done. Golf balls are more universally known than coins, and are available worldwide....

Tennis balls, and most other types, float.
