I own the Rapala 50lb digital and I have never had a problem...that's a great fish, but I have to agree with a lot of the reviews..I have seen and caught my share of 5lbers and that doesn't look like a 5 to me. In my honest estimate I would put that at 3-3.5lbs

yeah the pic dont make it look 5 pounds but the 6lber i caught was 21 inches long and had a huge girth.... didnt measure the girth tho..... my scale is accurate..... i tied a towel around a 10lb dumbell and weighed it 10 lbs one ounce.... once ounce for the towel i guess

Thanks!

What scale do you have?

My dad's been a butt about getting scales. He say it's gotta be like a boga to be accurate, and wont let me get one, he says it a "wast of money"

All probably get a one when I got to gander with someone else.

I've got a 3lb barbell that I had when I was 5 that I could use to test.
