Looking to buy weigh scales for MSU and Michigan College Bass Circuit. Any advice or suggestions?

Did you happen to use a tub?

i use a small laundry tub or something. Its like 24"x18x18 (ish).  Put the fish in a large plastic bag.

This year i have these bags to use instead of the plastic ones:

i zero the scale with the tub, but don't zero it for the bag. Each angler gets that additional weight for using the same exact bag. Makes things easier and faster.
