Anyone use one? I really want one just having a hard time spending the money. Are they worth it? Do you have a float attached in case you drop it over board?

Had to Google it, had never heard of them. Look pretty nice for a fish scale, but I never catch anything worth weighing.

Ha!, I was starting to wonder if anyone on here knew what I was talking about. They look killer for handling and releasing. I have been eyeballing one of about a year.

Shawn,

I have used one once or twice over the last twelve years and well unless you were handling some toothy monster like a musky I found them more trouble than they were worth. For most Utah Gamefish lipping them by hand and weighing them with another scale took less time and had less cause for stress about possibly loosing the thing over board. if you do get one definately make sure to have a float on it as I have seen numerous pairs of these lost overboard while fishing. luckily most had floats so no one was out the 50+ they paid.
