Just got mine last week,,,so I havent really "tried" them.  most of the berkley scales agree with each other very well, so I would expect no less with these.  Best Price---catfish connection @ $69.95  --- beats everyone else's 99.95

the only thing i dont like is the hook.
you will want to weigh everything in your net.
the hook is so big and the bend on it is not right or something  tickedoff

I used Rons and like he said the hook doesn't work to hang the fish from. It works better hanging the fish in a net which is better for the fish anyways.

Sounds like a good deal then, that hook is a 30 second problem.

I think that is the scale Doug puts ladies on before deciding
to take them to a steakhouse or a buffet on a date rolleyes

I am like you guys. Many of the scales for 100 pounds don't
seem to have hooks handy for that size fish. I guess you need
 to shop at tractor supply and replace hooks then zero the scales.

I solve the fish flopping problem with weigh slings. We make our own
but Gottafish made a dandy. Waiting for him to test it.

I got mine at Catfish Connection and like Jim said they are accurate. I don't care much for the hook either but I always weight my fish in the landing net anyway.

Thanks! I ordered a set from Catfish Connection just a little bit ago.

I probably won't like the hook either! grin
