Has anyone any experience with the culmrite scale?

Is it a good one? Pros/Cons

I still have 2 of the old origionals marketed by Stren. I had to send one in for repair one time, but i have been very pleased with mine. I promise you i have had both for 13 to 15 years i bet. Keep them dry!! I keep mine in an old hard cover box that the old lowrance graphs were sold in.

They are consistenty very accurate too.Sometimes as a guide, they bite me in the ass though. I get a customer all jacked up holding his fish, thinking he has a nine or ten and you gotta weigh it and break it to him, it does not weigh what it looks. I need to get those x scales that a lotta guides use. Word is you can do something to them to make em weigh heavy!

I have 2 old ones if anybody needs a set and one of the new ones that I use now.

For a long time I have just used a balance beam...  But this summer I think that cost me...  I was catching a bunch of keepers and having to cull a bunch (its rare that this happens I know)...  But a couple of my fish didnt make it that were healthy before...  I think the in and out of the livewell putting on a beam in the intense heat was a bad thing...

I am thinking that Cul M Rite is the way to go...  Are the new ones worth the price?  Best place to get one?

Thanks guys great input.

Brady, I think that turn around time is terrible.

If they had a 2 week turn around then it would be exceptable?

I had heard stories like Bradys before I sent mine in a month ago but I had both of mine back in 1 week.

That was a three pound weight though Jim. Damn guide scales.
