7433, RE: True scale weight? Posted by Bud, Wed Feb-01-06 08:34 AM
I bought mine from Pacific Scale. It cost $185.37. This included freight and handling. Talk to Lee Offield; Project Manager. He's been a fisherman for sixty years and understands the dilemma of accurate trophy weighing.
You don't want or need the 'pan' that is an accessory. The scale has a hook at the bottom...Maybe the pan is what jacked up the price. The scale hook is smaller than I would like. I hang a long shanked shark hook(barb filed off) from the scale hook and hit the 'zero' button. I use a small rubber plug on the scale hook to keep the shark hook from falling off. It works great....and it can be certified yearly.
