Digital scales provide ease and accuracy for anglers of the modern era.
The Rapala Digital Fish Scale is a device used by anglers to measure the weight of the fish they catch. It has a waterproof exterior and is built to be as compact as possible allowing it to be carried in a tackle box or fishing vest. In order to assure the scale will measure the weight of your next big catch with accuracy, you must first calibrate the scale. To calibrate means to tune your scale so that it is registering a weight of zero when no fish is attached to the device.
Instructions
1. Hold the Rapala Digital Fish Scale in the air by its handle. Unlike traditional weight scales, which are placed flat on a surface, this is a hanging scale. The scale measures the weight of your fish on a hook that hangs freely at the bottom of the device. When measuring your fish, you attach it to this hook and allow it to hang.
2. Check to make sure that the scale's hook is unencumbered, hanging vertically, and free of debris. If the hook is cluttered with debris or is not hanging vertically before turning it on, it will not be accurately calibrated. This ensures that, when it comes time to weigh in, the scale only registers the weight of your fish.
3. Press and hold the power button until the digital scale turns on. All Rapala digital scales automatically calibrate when turned on and reads 0.0 lbs. before use. If the scale is not automatically calibrated when powered on, then simply turn off the device and start again from step one.
