Great fish buddy! Congrats on the new PB!!

Also thanks for being legit on the weight and actually weighing her. Just goes to prove how truly special a LEGIT DD really is.

Nice fish. Get a good hand held scale for the boat. Hopefully you got a picture that isn't inside the bait shop.

I have a handheld but didn't even use it since I figured the bait shops would have been the best option. I was by myself and those are the only pics I got. I did video the release though grin

I'll be looking into a good scale that grabs the lips instead of the traditional hook style for the future.

Why don't you take something that you know the weight of and put it on those scales?

Congrats on a beautiful fish. My PB was 8.03 lbs and I caught a toad on PK this year. I figured it was around 9 lbs but was praying she was a 10. She ended up weighing 8.80 lbs. Just can't imagine what it would be like to hold a true 10 lber.

For weighing bigger fish, I like to tare the scale with a weigh bag and then place them in the weigh bag. Seems to be much less stressful on the fish and easier to get a quick stable reading.

Hope you get your DD soon!

I've put several good fish on that scale including a few DD's, it's certified and pretty accurate I think. But it does make me wonder a little, I caught one that was close to 10# a month or so ago and took it to that scale and it was a 9.2. On my handheld it was right at 10#. Here it is:
