AVID Digital Scales

Product Information

Every angler should have a reliable, accurate set of scales - after all, you never know when that fish of a lifetime is going to end up biting at your carp fishing rods! 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.

We really like the look of the built-in fold-out stainless steel arms that benefit from ergonomic reinforced sleeves, allowing you to get a firm and secure grip when lifting up the scales.

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 Wychwood Digital Fishing Scales feature a ‘T’ bar design to make lifting the fish a little easier, whilst making sure this is done as safely as possible, bringing very little harm, such as scale damage, to your catch. 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. 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. EASE OF USE:Very easy. On/Off button in the middle of the scales and then you simply push the ‘Reset/Zero’ button once you’ve attached your sling. Switching between pounds and kilos is extremely easy too.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. Capable of weighing fish up to a whopping 132lb (60kg) these specimen scales will handle carp, catfish and, well… every species you’re likely to catch in the UK, with an accurate reading in 1oz divisions. A simple three-button layout makes them super-easy to use, allowing you to change units and zero your weigh sling in all with a touch of a button. Avid Carp are another company who have already released a number of new and exciting products this autumn and their digital scales are one of our favourites. The built-in fold-out arms are also made from super-strong stainless steel with ergonomic reinforced over molded sleeves.

EASE OF USE:Operating—like all of the models featured—is done from three push buttons. ‘On/Off’ is enabled by pushing the ‘Power’ button for 2 (On) or 3 (Off) seconds, and you zero the scales by pushing the same button. 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!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. 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. Weigh hook: A metal eye or loop attached to the top of a set of scales to allow items like a weigh bar or crook to be attached to help lift the fish. The Avid Carp Digital Scales have been designed to make weighing big fish an easier task. These heavy-duty fishing scales feature a super-strong stainless steel frame encased in a reinforced over-moulded body, and every effort has been made for this product not only to withstand the stresses of fishing but give accurate readings with ease! EASE OF USE:Toggling between pounds and kilos is easy—just one push of a button. Taring is equally as simple, with its own function button.

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. RANGE:There are the three models available in the range: 33lb x 0.25oz; 66lb x 1oz; and 132lb x 1oz. Dial scale: A scale that uses a needle or dial to show the weight, an internal spring mechanism stretches when weight is applied which turns the needle, the bigger the weight the further the needle moves. This all depends on the size of the fish you're catching. For fish under 20lb, it is fairly easy for the majority of anglers to just lift the fish up via the eye/loop on the scales and get an accurate reading. However, after that weight, the lifting can become strenuous, especially if you can only use one or two fingers to lift the scales, which can lead to shaking, causing the weight to fluctuate. You can either buy scales that have weigh handles attached or use a tripod/weigh bar to help take the strain and allow you to read the weight accurately, especially important if you catch a large fish when fishing alone. These 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 they withstand the stresses and strains required to weigh big fish.Well, it’s certainly hard to re-invent the wheel when it comes to scales but Avid have thrown a lot of effort into making these ones both useful and long lasting. The Digital Scales from Avid have been designed to make to job of accurately recording fish weight an easier task. It then really comes down to what your budget is and how brand loyal you are, as most of the scales carry the same features. The cheaper models don’t have the ‘Memory’ feature, so if that’s something that is important to you, then the Reubens, Kordas, and Wychwoods with their 100% accuracy reading could be a good choice. However, do remember that those first two models are the most expensive on test. OVERVIEW:A lot of scale for a very competitive price tag. They come supplied with a neoprene pouch and a foldaway weighing hook so they are compact. The soft-touch buttons are simple and clear to operate. Along with a ‘zero’ function, you can also read the air temperature in fahrenheit or celsius!
