Now that i can stop worrying about fishers i was wondering what type of scales do yall use to weigh your fish.
I bought a cheap set of digitals that work well, from oldwillknotscales, was a jennings ultra sport v2-50 lifetime warranty, think they were around 20 bucks, have had them for a year and still work like new.Quote:

I use a Rapalla digital scale from Bass Pro - around $25. Seems to work just fine.
X2 on Toons Rapala tho it can be tough to read in the sun.
Those are what I have also. Works very well and are within .02ozs of our certified scales we use for tournaments. The one I am speaking of are about the size of a goose egg and same shape......Ranger
Thanks guys, i got some berkley digital ones with the boga grip, ive had them for a few years and i tried to use them this weekend and it kept giving me some bogus readings, i guess they crapped out.
Same here...works good.Quote:

Thanks toon, I was wondering excatly which ones you all were talking about. I need some new ones myself and have a birthday BPS card that I "need" to use!
Remember W.W. you and I need to catch em before we need to weigh em.:biggrinQuote:

I have the Rapala scales, but there seems to be a problem. They always show that the fish weighs much less than what I told everybody it was. Factory defect probably.
Dang, that is terrible! Maybe there is a factory rep on the board here that can help!:donoQuote:

Toon I am SURE I have caught some 2 or 3 pounders- But they have all fallen back into water before I could find my scales!!!Quote:
