AVID Digital Scales

Product Information

A good set of fishing scales are almost as important as your rods in modern angling, with many anglers chasing monster fish and others fishing in matches, you need to be confident that your scales are reliable. Whether you're new to fishing or a seasoned angler, it is always nice to know what the fish you're catching weighs. There is nothing worse than landing a fish of a lifetime and having to wonder how big it really was, as you didn't have any scales. RANGE:There are the three models available in the range: 33lb x 0.25oz; 66lb x 1oz; and 132lb x 1oz. Feature a super-strong stainless steel frame encased in a reinforced over molded body, every effort has been made to ensure the Digital Scales withstand the stresses and strains required to weigh big fish. The Avid Digital Scales from Avid have been designed to make to job of accurately recording fish weight an easier task.

Feature a super strong stainless steel frame incased in a reinforced over molded body, every effort has been made to ensure the Digital Scales withstand the stresses and strains required to weigh big fish. EASE OF USE:Three buttons to carry out three processes: On/Off; Tare (to zero your sling); and ‘Unit’, which allows you to switch between pounds and kilos. Just like the Avid scales, very simple to operate. With a maximum weighing capacity of 60lb, these are sufficient for your local lake, but not so much if you fish over in Europe regularly. EASE OF USE:These scales follow exactly the same layout as the Prologics. The only issue we had with these was the taring, which happened just once: it kept starting at 0.20kg. And then it did go to zero for seemingly no reason! Increments: These are the increasing, numbered marks or lines on a dial scale that show the weight, whatever increment the needle rests on is the registered weight.The Digital Scales from Avid have been designed to make to job of accurately recording fish weight an easier task. Feature a super strong stainless steel frame in cased in a reinforced over moulded body, every effort has been made to ensure the Digital Scales withstand the stresses and strains required to weigh big fish. The built-in fold out arms are also made from super strong stainless steel with ergonomic reinforced over moulded sleeves. Each of the scales was hung and zeroed on a Nash Weighing Tripod, and then tested three times to see if there was any variation in the results achieved. There’s no human element in this test—just pure scientific fact. Here’s how each of the scales got on… OVERVIEW:Electric car: Tesla. Vacuum cleaner: Dyson. Fishing scales: Reuben. They are your go-to brand for reliability and heritage. In fact, these were the very model of scales that weighed Dean Fletcher’s 2016 British record—and were 100% bang on when they were tested at Weights and Measures. Feature a super strong stainless steel frame incased in a reinforced over moulded body, every effort has been made to ensure the Digital Scales withstand the stresses and strains required to weigh big fish.

It is also important to buy a set of scales that are capable of weighing the fish you are looking to catch. If you're an avid roach angler, then a set of scales that weigh up to 10lb would be a great choice. They provide the finesse for accurate weighing of smaller fish and if you bottom them out with a roach, you wouldn't care anyway. If you like to fish for large fish like carp or catfish, a set of scales that can weigh in excess of 100lb are required, just make sure the scales you choose are suitable for the fish you're targeting.
