Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this scale measure in kilograms?

No, this specific model is an Imperial-only scale and will display weight in pounds and ounces.

What is the maximum weight capacity?

This model has a maximum capacity of 120lb.

Is the internal mechanism waterproof?

The scales feature highly corrosion-resistant interiors, but they are not fully waterproof and should be kept away from complete submersion.

Can I use this for weigh-in competitions?

Yes, as the scales are built to high accuracy standards and include a certificate of authenticity, they are widely accepted in many angling circles.

What does the 15% tare capacity mean?

The scale allows you to offset or 'zero out' the weight of a weigh sling or bucket, provided that the container weight does not exceed 15% of the scale's total 120lb capacity.

Troubleshooting

Scale does not return to zero

Ensure the scale is hanging perfectly vertical and use the tare/zero facility dial to adjust the needle manually.

Dial is difficult to read in bright sunlight

The negative-look high-visibility dial is designed for contrast; however, if glare persists, slightly reposition the scale to angle the lens away from direct reflections.

Needle sticks or moves sluggishly

Check the hook and hanging points for debris or salt buildup. Clean gently with a dry, lint-free cloth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High accuracy over one part in 250
  • Extremely durable polycarbonate housing
  • Corrosion-resistant internal mechanics
  • High-visibility negative-look dial
  • Includes certificate of authenticity

Cons

  • Displays only in Imperial units
  • Large size may be bulky for ultra-light travel
  • Requires manual tare adjustment

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before use, hang the scale from a stable, vertical support to ensure the needle rests at zero. If the needle is slightly offset, use the tare knob to calibrate it to zero before hooking your weigh sling. After use in wet or saltwater conditions, wipe the unit down with a soft, dry cloth. Ensure the scale is stored in a clean, dry environment, preferably in a protective pouch, to maintain the integrity of the high-impact polycarbonate lens. Periodic checks of the stainless steel hook for any signs of debris or debris-related jamming are recommended.
