I laugh when people hold scales by the sides with two hands it actually adds 4oz on .. Always weigh holding by the top with a bar .I've got the England RH scales can't go wrong.

Great blog especially the part where anglers hold them incorrectly and when it's tilted that was a new one for me to know 👍👍👍👍👍

Great video, that 26lb reading was with the correctly zeroed scales, if that wasn't done as well that would have been over 30lb!

Brilliant blog there is so many people are reading the scales wrong out there they are only cheating there self not anybody else. 👍👍

Good idea to make a video covering this topic 👍
I don't think I've ever seen anyone on YouTube explain how to weigh fish correctly but I always see people either holding the sides of the scales and/or pouring water over the carp whilst it's lay on the sling and mat so when the pull the sling up and weigh it there's still water pouring out the sling 🤦

Great tutorial, a lot of often overlooked info👍. Something I've been wondering is, do the digital scales have a tare memory function so you don't have to tare the sling every time it's turned on? It seems like they would but when reading the info on them, they don't advertise this as a function. Even on product review video I can't find anyone mentioning this. I'd really prefer a digital but if they can't do this it's a deal breaker for me and will be getting an analog
