Title: Tournament Scale?
Post by: 10-10 Bass Busters on September 06, 2007, 04:11:32 AM
Myself and some friends are going to start fishing small tournaments around Isabella County.  I was wondering if any of you have tried using the 36 to 50 lb shipping scales they sell on ebay for like $20.  I was thinking of getting one of these for our weigh-ins.  They zero and have a .1 accuracy.  Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

One of the guys in our Monday Night Singles club bought something like that off ebay.  I'm not sure which one exactly it was, but it would lock itself after a couple of seconds.  So, you had to put every fish in at once, start over after weighing big bass, etc.  We tried it for one person, and decided to go with the old one. 

We aren't good enough to catch 36-50 pounds anyway. >:(

Lastly, I think there is some sort of board rule  ;D that I am supposed to know about any tournements in the whole Montcalm, Mecosta, Isabella area.  So, please share more info if you guys start fishing.  I like fishing.
