What Kind Of Weighing Scales To Get??

[HydrillaKilla]

im wanting to buy one of the lip grabber/clamp type fishing scales and dont want to make the mistake of buying one only to replace it in a week with a different brand. i am wondering which one is the better one of this type of scale? i have been using a digital rapala scale for years but it will only weigh up to 10lbs. i see a lot of the big name fishermen using the gripper/weigher type now and figured that would be the type to get? any help would be appreciated. thanks

Get the BOGA.  It can be certified.  I bought one last year and use it instead of a net especially on crank and jerk bait fish.

I have a question regarding the BOGA-grips.   I was looking at them on basspro.com, and they 15lb one measures in 1/4lb increments, and the 30 and 60lb ones measure in 1lb increments.  I have never used one in person, but can you get an accurate measurement down to the oz, on one of the 30lb ones.

I personally like ones that measures in ounces.  I have an X-Tools scale and love it and it's features.  I check it 2 or 3 times a season.  Dead on everythime so far.

I'm in KU's camp here.

Last year I ordered a Boga Grip for our Canada vacation, but was very disappointed!

The 30-lb Boga is graduated in 1/2 lb increments; which is not what I had in mind. >

I also own a "Normark Digital 50 Weigh-In" that must be 30 years old. About two years ago,

the digital scale still read within an ounce of a certified scale, and that's what I'm accustomed to.

I will say this, keeping the Digital Scale in batteries can be a drag,

whereas my Boga and Chatillon scales require no electrical power.
