Most modern carp anglers are weight-chasers, whether they care to admit it or not, so a set of weighing scales is a vital bit of tackle. As avid carp anglers ourselves, we know just how important it is to invest in a set of scales that will last the distance on the bank and will give accurate readings time and time again.
What Weighing Scales Do I Need for Carp Fishing?
Whether you’re a traditionalist who likes to see the needle swing around on an analogue set of scales when you hang up your carp, or you’re a technology-savvy angler who likes the accuracy of digital scales, fishing scales are all designed to more than take the weight of any carp you put in them as well as waterproofing as they will inevitably get wet from your splashing fish.
Carp fishing scales come in at a variety of price points (£10 - £90) and are created by some of the finest tackle manufacturers around. We stock scales from the likes of Reuben Heaton, Korda, Korum and Saber to name just a few. These brands really understand fishing, and all the scales we stock have been designed to make it as easy as possible to weigh your fish. We also stock an outstanding range of weighing accessories. You can find everything from weighing bars to tripods in this section too.
