Like the topic says I would like to find the most accurate one that measures in 10ths. Have started fishing some tournaments so every 10th is important. Want a good one not like the ones at walmart. Have gotten a rapala that is 6ish oz off about every time. Bought a Berkly that doesn't measure 10 ths. Thanks in advance!
That's a good question. I've been wanting to get one. If its not accurate its worthless.
Also if it doesn't lasts it doesn't help. I was in BP and saw some good ones going for $50 and up. Since I knew nothing about them
I passed them by.
For the money these are worth a look.

I think fish scales are like my hunt for the accurate oven thermometer; it doesn't matter how much you spend, they're a crapshoot even within the same model. I'm going to buy this one Amazon.com: 40KG Portable Digital Hangging Luggage Fishing Scale: Sports & Outdoors because it's got pretty good reviews and is only $7.49.
Heres one I found searching. 32.00 for scale and 35.00 ish for culling system. Anyone use this. In first post I meant 100ths instead of10ths

balance or culling beam
Well I was looking for one also and for the price I thought I would try this one so I ordered it. Anyone know what size battery it takes? I forgot to check and I am taking the reviews at their word that you can switch from metric to english units.Quote:

A balance beam is a must have while culling fish but if you're trying to see how fish are weighing compared to different areas of the lake, you'll need to find a scale with a max weight of less than 15 lbs. A 50lb scale will rarely be accurate to the ounce below 3lbs. I've got an old Rapala that is rated for 10lbs that's pretty accurate but could still be better. They're kind of hard to find!
