I'm not a fisherman, but bought this to accurately weigh items I sell on ebay so I can print online postage at home. Works perfectly.

Product arrived on time for Christmas; Just what my husband wanted! Good product, good price.

Here's a secret for the uninformed: This is a very popular scale with people who never weigh a single fish. This is perhaps the best inexpensive package scale you can get, and if you're a regular eBay seller, it's one of the best tools you cna buy for making accurate weighings for estimating shipping charges. With this scale and a plastic bag, you can weigh any package, no matter how irregularly shaped, and get a weight accurate within an ounce or two. But remember- it's a secret!
