I know you said you didn't want digital, but I've got one of these and they are surprisingly accurate.

Thanks Brian I guess battery operated devises are now a lot more efficient than they used to be,Im probably carrying some old bagage.

 

Theres a nice Lineaeffe digital one on Ebay comes with a sling and a carry bag, item no 290628119612 looks OK. Anybody got one?

For the PBSBAC Open we bought the following in 22lb/10kg and 99lb/45kg.

 

Excellent service from http://www.scalesexpress.com

 

But these 55lb ones are a good all rounder.

We bought the smaller set to give greater accuracy of 1/4oz in for the smaller species that are weighed in.

 

Just be wary of Ebay as often there is no warranty and \ or it is more hassle than it is worth as often the sellers are geared only for selling and not customer service!

 

I have the Berkley pistol grip scales to 65lb and they are ace, even at weighing onboard. Mark at AA has them at

I have the same ones as Brian (Ebay 220812344246) - had them over 2yrs on the original battery, nice & small in the tackle box and accurate too. I've even managed to use them once or twice
