[cool][#0000ff]They are rated as "water resistant"...and they do have a feature that allows you to preset them to factor out the weight of a bag or net. This is the method used by a lot of competitive anglers...to put the fish in a mesh bag or net to weigh them and then remove the weight of the container.[/#0000ff]

The large digital display is easy to read so you can spend your time fishing instead of deciphering scales. The incredibly rugged construction handles the abuse that fishing environments can dish out and the retractable handle makes it perfect for stowing away in your boat or tackle box. The 4-minute shutoff ensures that you save your batteries when the scale is not in use, giving you a full 500-hour life out of a single 9V battery (not included). Tare weight feature also lets you eliminate the weight from a bag or container so you get the most accurate and precise measurement possible. Choose from the 15-lb. model or the 50-lb. version to better match the species that you're after.
Available: 15-lb., 50-lb.
